On my multiplayer server some players don't like that zombies and other NPCs are stealing their dropped items.
I know I can change the gamerule "mobGriefing" to false, but that will stop Creepers from destroying everything and that's lame 😉
How can I prevent mobs from stealing dropped items without preventing creepers from destroying blocks? Maybe there's a mod for this?

you can use an NBTeditor to change the value of CanPickUpLoot on various mobs to false, this is how i managed it but you need to have access to the server files,
I have spent the last 6 months looking for a simpler solution with no luck. from what i can tell the only other option is Mobgriefing Rule. or if this is caused when the player dies and the players are getting annoyed at loosing their items you can set keepinventory to true. but that would be a community decision. as many players don't like that rule.
