Copy Anything to Clipboard for WordPress – Copy Button, Copy Text & Copy Code

79 Quality Score

Active Installs

18/30

10,000 active installs is modest compared to the Elementor-focused alternatives listed, which reach into the millions, so its niche reach keeps the popularity score moderate.

Update Freshness

25/25

Updated within the last week and tested against WordPress 6.9.4, the plugin shows clear signs of active, current maintenance.

User Rating

14/15

35 ratings yielding a 92/100 score is a positive signal, though the small sample size means the average could shift with more reviews.

Support Health

8/15

Zero support threads opened and zero resolved is a concern: it could mean the plugin is problem-free, or it could mean users have nowhere to turn when issues arise, and there is no public track record either way.

WP Compatibility

15/15

Minimum requirements of WordPress 4.4 and PHP 5.6 are extremely forgiving, and testing on the latest 6.9.4 release confirms strong forward compatibility.

What It Does

Copy Anything to Clipboard adds one-click copy buttons to code blocks, text snippets, and other content on your WordPress site. It works with the Gutenberg block editor, Classic Editor, and Elementor, and supports shortcodes for placement in widgets, sidebars, or templates. The plugin handles both plain text and formatted code (including syntax highlighting through CSS).

Who It's For

This plugin is a good fit for developers, technical bloggers, and documentation authors who regularly publish code snippets, configuration examples, or shareable text blocks like coupon codes or affiliate links. It is especially useful for programming tutorial sites, knowledge bases, and SaaS product pages where visitors frequently copy content to reuse elsewhere.

Who Should Skip It

If your site rarely publishes code or short reusable snippets, the overhead of another plugin is not justified, and a browser's native copy will do the job. Sites already using a code-highlighting plugin like Prism or SyntaxHighlighter with built-in copy buttons should avoid stacking this on top.

The Bottom Line

Copy Anything to Clipboard is a focused, actively maintained utility that does one job and does it well, earning a 79.21/100 overall quality score. The biggest gap is support transparency: zero public threads make it hard to gauge responsiveness, and the install base is small relative to the Elementor alternatives. For a site that publishes code or reusable snippets regularly, it is a solid choice; everyone else can probably skip it.

Pick this if you already use Elementor and want copy buttons bundled with dozens of other widgets rather than a dedicated utility plugin.
