Maybe you site is cached? * You cannot use Firebug, Web Inspector or Dragonfly, to test the encoding, because they decode decimal/hexadecimal entities into plain text. To make sure your email address is encoded, right-click/secondary-click the page, click “View Source”,“ View Page Source” or “Source” and search for any plain text email addresses. * [captainbr](https://wordpress.org/support/users/captainbr/) * (@captainbr) * [13 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-email-address-encoder-encoding-e-mails-from-custom-fields/#post-2740124) * Hi Till, I am not using any caching as far as I know. I have refreshed the page and also used F5. * I have looked on my site on another computer which has never viewed the site. I am using View Page Source and the plain text is still visible. * Plugin Author [Till Krüss](https://wordpress.org/support/users/tillkruess/) * (@tillkruess) * [13 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/plugin-email-address-encoder-encoding-e-mails-from-custom-fields/#post-2740125) * Well, then the only reason I can come up with is that you’re editing the wrong file, because everything that gets passed through `eae_encode_str()` will be encoded.
