user registration spam   18 Relevance 1 year ago Sergido How-to and Troubleshooting
  Hello, I am receiving many user registrations (SPAM), is there a way or some plugin to avoid Spam registrations? I have configured the active Spam part of wpforo and even so, Spam records continue to come in
index.hmtl SPAM flag   18 Relevance 1 year ago sison2466 How-to and Troubleshooting

RE: Spam Attack...   18 Relevance 3 years ago dimalifragis General Discussions
  Why don't you enable your own tools for Spam? All that chinese Spam could be moderated if "User is New (under hard Spam control) during first [X] posts" was active or something. Because that crap Spam is useless for SEO but maybe harmful for you. Especially if it is not deleted immediately.
Spam registrations wpforo   18 Relevance 3 years ago JanJan How-to and Troubleshooting
  Hi, I have followed all recommendations in this helpful "How to stop Spam" post: Still, I get up to 20 Spam registrations per day. Settings-General-"Anyone can register" is unchecked, Akismet is enabled, Google reCAPTCHA is enabled, Anti-Spam by CleanTalk is active, New User Approve is installed (which is still a manual task). Anything else I can do other than removing the forum completely? Thanks

RE: hiding registration page from spam / sign ups   18 Relevance 6 years ago Alvina How-to and Troubleshooting
  Hi @cad-ray-armen, Thank you fr using wpForo and for contacting us. Please note: user registration and account creation is a part of WordPress core. wpForo only provides a registration form. You can install and configure any WordPress antispam plugin to protect Spam user registration. This is not the wpForo part, this is the WordPress part. I'd also suggest you read this article. It also would be helpful for you:
RE: Can Spam-O-Matic be used with wpForo?   18 Relevance 7 years ago Robert General Discussions
  Hi DaveLandon, User registration and account creation is a part of WordPress core. wpForo ony provides a registration form. You can install and configure any WordPress antispam plugin to protect Spam user registration. This is not wpForo part, this is WordPress part. wpForo will care about Spam posting and help a little in user registration protection with builtin reCAPTCHA. These are wpForo antispam solutions: New Topic / Post Moderation1. Option to keep topics and posts unapproved until admin is not reviews and approved. If a Spam is suspected, new topi ...

But before checking these options please read this support topic and make sure you've done all steps of the Spam protection:
RE: How to avoid being bombed by the junk ads posts?   16 Relevance 1 year ago Macky How-to and Troubleshooting
  For me, all new users have to have their first 2 posts approve manually by admin. I also have all members need 3 posts to edit profile, and over 20 posts to post a link. Then, I use Clean talk, this has kept a huge amount of Spam away from my forum. Its very rare i see those kinds of posts now. Try it out mate. You can get awhol eyears cover for like $5, very cheap, very good. With those two thing sin place, you shouldn't see much Spam. And even if you do, the members of your forum wont see it because you need to approve it first. Then you just delete th ...
RE: Deleting a post hides the topic from the forum.   16 Relevance 3 years ago Surlofia Bug Reports
  @dimalifragis Posted by: @dimalifragis 90% of Spam CAN be blocked BEFORE registering/loging in. It is wrong to try to fight Spam and profile Spam, AFTER a user has registered. A waste of time. I assume you are in the same situation, we are having trouble with the remaining 10%. For example, if we have 30 Spam registrations daily on our forum, even if we successfully block 27 of them, if we miss 3, those 3 will post a lot of Spam. I will try the plugin you mentioned tomorrow. Thanks for your assistance, I appreciate it.We are counting on your advice.
RE: So many ad accout registered in my forum!   16 Relevance 4 years ago kevintian General Discussions
  @robert Do you mean that Akismet + Anti Spam by CleanTalk (paid) is Akismet Anti-Spam is created by Automattic+Anti Spam by CleanTalk (paid)? Or only Anti-Spam by CleanTalk? They block the Spam, can they block the register?
