How do I add encrypted links in a WP theme ?

I've seen sellers talk about encrypted sponsor links in their styles and I'd like to add links like this to my styles.


Thanks

I'm also looking for this info - Have seen it before but can't remember where.

encrypt your footer code here http://www.rightscripts.com/phpencode/index.php

 

so all i have to do is enter the links in the footer and then enter the code in the website ?? i was expecting something harder and much more time consuming

+rep for you

 

thanks for the rep!
exactly this what you have to do,when you encode it you will recieve a crazy long code,put it in you footer file,very simple

 

So people can still take the footer links out by deleting the footer.php file?

 

yes,but if they delete the footer file probably they will break the layout

 

It shouldn't break the layout.

 

Why would it break the layout?

Is there any way to say if they deleted the footer.php , the layout would not work unless they added it back in, like kinda forces them to keep it.

 

will break the layout depending of the layout structure,example,if the layout has an footer image that if removed will make the layout very incomplete or something like that.
have any other way to protect the links of being removed

 

Or you could just comment the long line out, shouldn't be hard to find. If someone wants the links gone, they will find a way to remove them.

 

Good point,
Could something be added when adding the links that breaks the WP if the code is removed.
Maybe part of the footer or index.php file ?

Thanks
