The CopyScape plugin for Joomla 1.5 is a GLP licensed extension designed to simplify the process by which you can insure originality of content (and avoid the Google Duplicate Content Penalty) and protect your content from plagiarism.

The plugin places a button next to your article titles that only your special users (Authors and above) can see.  If you click on the button, it passes a URL to your article text (without the template, menus and modules) to Copyscape for testing.

This product is for Copyscape PREMIUM users only. It was designed for quickly going around a site and manually checking each article from the front end.

Installation Instructions:

1. Install the plugin and turn it on
2. Go to www.copyscape.com, and login with your PREMIUM account id WITH COOKIES ENABLED
3. Each AUTHOR+ user must have previously logged into a PREMIUM copyscape account for this to work

Roadmap: We are planning on creating a more advanced plugin which tracks the copyscape history at the bottom of each article (first date, last date, # checks), and places the a copy-protected warning logo on the article if you wish.
