[Solved] How to prevent spam user sign up and password change

JanJan · 2020-07-23T07:45:47Z

Hi, Onwe have sign ups with subsequent password changes. This forum is meant to only be accessible for certain users of ours as it is accessible through a password protected page only and should not be found on the web otherwise. Are you able to advise how to protect this page from spammers? The link has been shared with our people and in this forum, not otherwise. Thanks, Jana

I adjusted the amount of security plugins and it´s many more than 2-3 domains.

If "Anyone can register" is unticked, who can register? I am still getting sign ups, is there another option to deactivate registration for the forum?
