Hey @Aaron , in a couple of posts, I noticed that you’ve had your email blurred and was just curious how you did that (example here: [Fix “Open” Window Issue in RapidWeaver 7.x on High Sierra](http://forums.realmacsoftware.com/t/fix-open-window-issue-in-rapidweaver-7-x-on-high-sierra/17831?u=jabostick))

Not sure if blurring will help with stopping crawlers, the text is still on the page?

Doubt it has spam bot prevention capabilities, but feels somewhat safer. 🤷‍♂️

I can still see the whole text that are blurred in the source code so no, it will not prevent the crawlers or email harvester from capturing it.
