How to avoid bot/spam user registrations?

Identifying the Registration Source #

• Go to admin Dashboard > Users > All Users.

In the Source tab, you can see the source from where the users are registered.

If the source is a User Registration form, this means that the users are registered via our plugin. If not, they are coming from other sources.

Preventive Methods #

• If the source of the registration is blank, they are from the default WordPress registration form.
  In this case, follow the steps below.
  • Go to User Registration > Settings > General > Login Options.
  • Find and toggle on the Disable Default WordPress Login Screen option.

Please make sure you have created a My Account page and then select that page for the redirection. Click here to learn how to create a My Account page.

• If the registration source of the spam user is one of the forms created via the User Registration forms, we offer multiple security methods in our plugin to prevent that.
