Hello,

  My forum on my football website shows I have 8000 members and I know that less than 1000 are actually members that are there for the football.  I am not sure how so many joined, but I would rather have members listed that are really there and not the numbers.  How do I set the forum so only real members can join.

Hi @hueybryan,

Please note, that the user registration process doesn’t have a direct relation to wpForo. You can disable wpForo and the spam users will continue to register. This is a core WordPress function. WordPress has made lots of opportunities to prevent spam registration, almost all also work for wpForo. You can search for “stop spam registration in WordPress” on google and follow results.
