An example is

It works by adding a hidden field to your registration form. Users can’t see the field so will never complete it (it will always be blank). Spam bots, however, don’t view the page in the same way as…[Read more]

Spam bots automatically look for pages such as /register/ so maybe use /sign-me-up/

Those 2300 must not have logged in the first time. If they have not, they will not show up in the members directory. If they have not logged in yet I would imagine a good majority of them are spam accounts. Good luck!

Instead of fiddling around in the database why not just use a plugin to activate…[Read more]
