WordPress Username Availability Checker 1.1.8I have configured a new Register page using ERForms. I’ve created just a wordpress page which has only a shortcode to the ERform.
I’ve set it at buddypress settings-> Pages -> register. Buddypress is redirecting to the wordpress regitration page instead of my page.
I’ve also changed the redirection at buddypress setting to whatever page (for example my FAQ page) and always redirects to the wordpress registration page.I’ve tried also deactivating all plugin but buddypress and ERforms and no, buddypress is always redriecting to the standard wordpress registration page instead of what I am setting.
Any hint / idea what to cope this problem?
Thnks in advance
Would removing the activation url/key combo from the activation email (forcing user to copy/paste the key) slow down spam registrations?
It seems like it is very easy for bots to activate the account because the key is automatically inserted into the form and activation proceeds. My thought is that forcing the user to copy and paste the activation key would thwart some bots. Obviously this user experience is less ideal but if it stops bots I’m willing to do it.
Any thoughts or experience with this?
I am running WordPress 6.0.3 and am on BuddyPress 10.6.0.
I turned off the Private Messaging component in BuddyPress Settings over 2 years ago. Now all of the sudden my users are getting email notifications of Private Messages. I know these are legit because they include text I wrote before I shut Messaging down due to rampant spamming.
I checked BuddyPress Settings and the Private Messaging Component is still unchecked. Is there something else I need to do to ensure Private Messaging is off?

is there a way to clean up?Hi there,
I’m having an issue with BuddyPress registration.
When I create a new account I never get the confirmation email. But the member gets registered on the website. As admin I can see that member in the members menu. When I manually make that member active, I still can’t log in.I have tried every single setting.
-Creating New Pages for Registration & Activation
-In setting I ticked: Anyone can join
-Deactivating all the plugins accept BuddyPress.
-Putting in PHP code to activate the email
-Even tried WP Mail SMTPWP Mail SMTP didn’t really help. Before using it I tried sending “reset password” to new member. It went through. When I used WP Mail SMTP the emails were going to spam. So the email address is all correct on my website.
I wasted 9 hours trying every single solution I was finding on internet and nothing work.
If you know a fix for this issue, please let me know.Topic: Is this test spam site?
Why you permit so many spam ?

Any ideas where this is being called and any way to tweak it to force it to use another index?
For some reason, it’s using date_recorded as the index, thus causing these 1,2,3+ second queries.
They look like this:
SELECT DISTINCT a.id FROM wp_bp_activity a WHERE ( ( a.user_id IN ( 457,4233,6113,4562,47,5954,5530,5149,5160,5500,6436 ) AND a.hide_sitewide = 0 ) ) AND a.is_spam = 0 AND a.type NOT IN ('activity_comment', 'last_activity') ORDER BY a.date_recorded DESC, a.id DESC LIMIT 15, 16; /////////////// SELECT DISTINCT a.id FROM wp_bp_activity a WHERE ( ( a.user_id IN ( 5137,4581 ) AND a.hide_sitewide = 0 ) ) AND a.is_spam = 0 AND a.type NOT IN ('activity_comment', 'last_activity') ORDER BY a.date_recorded DESC, a.id DESC LIMIT 0, 16; /////////////// SELECT DISTINCT a.id FROM wp_bp_activity a WHERE ( ( a.user_id IN ( 34806 ) AND a.hide_sitewide = 0 ) ) AND a.is_spam = 0 AND a.type NOT IN ('activity_comment', 'last_activity') ORDER BY a.date_recorded DESC, a.id DESC LIMIT 60, 16;
Our site is at http://www.gleanr.com.au. We are using Buddy press 2.0 and WordPress latest version. We have an issue with new members joining our site and creating spam groups. We are examining ways of stopping them from registering by using two factor registration. This should reduce it and we are also looking at WP plugin linked to an external spam domain list service to reduce this issue at entry to our site. However the group creation process is really another issue and at present we have no way of controlling the groups being created, other than looking at the list of groups each day and deleting the ones we feel are spam. Are there any WP tools that will alert our site admin and/or give us more control over groups being used specifically for spam. Thanks
Apologies for the repeat. I was told that the first topic was marked as spam, that’s the reason for this one, incase the first one is not seen.
I am running the current versions of WordPress and buddypress. I all of a sudden cannot see my admin tool bar or login to my WordPress backend. Activated the debug feature and found out its an issue with buddypress plugin. Please how Do I resolve this? I had to disable the entire plugins, to be able to login of give access to my backend.

Our web site is at https://www.gleanr.com.au/. Its a member site and we use Ultimate member plugin into Buddypress member area and its a WordPress site. We are having issues with people registering into the site with what appear to be bogus email addresses. We have an email activation process that follows new member registration. We use the google recaptcha tool which sometimes has the choice from images in boxes come up and at other times is only a tick box (I am not a robot). Its very random and seems out of our control.
It seems that some people registering with bogus email addresses can activate their account (which is weird) and they have been creating spam groups in our member area. So in summary, my questions are:1. Are there any plugins or obvious processes we are missing to stop the bogus registrations
2. Are there plugins or processes that can prevent bogus groups being created and at the very least provide an easy pathway for the site administrator to be involved in group approval process and/or be alerted whenever a new group is created.Thanks
We’re experimenting with manually approving signups for the first time after starting to get too many spam signups.
Under Settings > General I’ve unchecked ‘Anyone can register’. Then, under Settings > BuddyPress > Options > Members Settings, I’ve checked ‘Allow visitors to request site membership’.
Now, when I fill in the registration form, an email is sent to admin asking them to approve the membership request. However, at the same time, an email is sent to the registrant saying, ‘Sorry, your request to join the site has been declined.’
If admin approves the request, the registrant then gets the email to activate their account and the process proceeds as normal. So, it’s all kind of working – except for this ‘Your request has been declined’ email, which doesn’t seem like it should be being sent.
All I can find related to this is this thread – https://buddypress.org/support/topic/membership-requests-email/ – which is actually about the fact that this email shouldn’t be sent to spam signups (seems reasonable). However, while that thread is about the email being sent after admin refuses approval, in my case the email is being sent even before disapproval.
Hi guys
Is it possible to remove/hide the “Popular” filter which displays above the Members list widget (Newest/Active/Popular) ?
It kinda encourages friend-request spamming on my site, users competing to be at the top of that “Popular” list.
So just remove the Popular filter, the Newest and Active should remain.
Thanks for any help.

Trying to find the source of sudden weird lag on my large Buddypress website. I noticed this query running very frequently:# Time: 220408 21:41:46 # User@Host: [removed] @ localhost [] # Thread_id: 337208 Schema: [removed] QC_hit: No # Query_time: 1.645619 Lock_time: 0.000068 Rows_sent: 0 Rows_examined: 0 # Rows_affected: 0 Bytes_sent: 77 SET timestamp=1649454106; SELECT DISTINCT a.id FROM wp_bp_activity a WHERE ( ( ( a.component = 'groups' AND a.item_id IN ( 0 ) ) AND a.hide_sitewide = 0 ) ) AND a.is_spam = 0 AND a.type NOT IN ('activity_comment', 'last_activity') ORDER BY a.date_recorded DESC, a.id DESC LIMIT 0, 16;
Query_time: 1.645619
It always results in nothing. So, where is it coming from and how can I stop it?
Any idea what function is triggering this, I’d be able to even edit the core file just to have it check “if certain params are true, don’t even run this query”I think it’s killing my site’s performance
