I was wondering is there is a code with IF that could tell me when people or guest are trying to copy post or take print screen.

I really doubt this is something that can be acheived. For example, when you try to copy a post, all you are doing is highlighting the post and pressing ctrl + C on your keyboard to copy it. No information is being sent to the board to say you are doing this, and it's not something that could really be done without some kind of browser modification.

There are some limited codes out there which do let you block certain actions, such as right clicking (To prevent copying of images, for example), but they can be bypassed by those less inept with computers.

Out of interest, why might you want these kinds of features? Just for general information? Or more for security (Knowing if users are trying to steal things, for example)?

My forum is in a war without another forum, and we mullet each other out, and on their board they have the same as mine the no right click code, and now they have one of the screen shot one.

Everytime some one takes a print screen shot they know about it.

Just wanted to play the same game they were doing.

I could use this feature myself, but as stated i don't see it as very achievable.

So does that mean I can't check if members are copying stuff from my forum?

If found, please report missing.

Unfortunately no, you have to put trust in your members that they won't copy items. If you don't trust them you can use permission masks and a separate section for those you do trust.
