This is getting worse and worse. I just launched my first BuddyPress site and am getting spammer registrations although I have additional required profile fields and SI Captcha installed.

Sadly, the article mentioned (linked) above is not available anymore (I guess the spammers took down that site) and judging by the responses here there still seems to be no known solution to the spammer problem with WPMU/BuddyPress.

I spoke to someone on Twitter who confirmed that the spam problem started when activating BuddyPress – this would be in contradiction to remarks from Andy, I’m afraid. Anyhow: after reading comments here there seems to be a hole in the system somewhere.

(I guess the spammers have been clever enough not to spam testbp.org )

You’re right as well, Travel Junkie, but there’s no hook for the “completed-confirmation” screen specifically.

However, there appears to be a hook called “bp_custom_signup_steps” in register.php, which you could hook into after the “completed-confirmation” screen.

You might not even have to do that. There’s probably loads of hooks around, so all you need to do is add some functions to your child themes functions.php file, that add stuff to the appropriate hook. Keeping your theme up-to-date will be even easier that way, if a tiny bit more complicated…

Yes, you can!

If you have a child theme, move /plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/registration/register.php and /plugins/buddypress/bp-themes/bp-default/registration/activate.php to your child theme and modify to your liking.

If you don’t have a child theme, read this guide:

I use this plugin instead of captcha:

https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/invitation-code-checker/

You can set an ivitation-code and everyone who wants to register has to write the code in a registration-field.

I changed the plugin a little bit for my needs so the code to write is seen on the registration-page.

You must identify the spam blogs and remove them. Once a spammer has admin access they can add new users to that blog. Those users can then create new blogs.

It really is Crazy!!! Where and how do they get in, that they can Register like that? Every couple of minutes One signup…. HELP! Nothing seems to stop them… I Even disabled any registration and they keep on signing up – really Strange to me!

Thanks for another hint

No, actually I was talking about http://www.prisma-online.org – but same thing with the slug. I just guess it’s not that, because if they would come in normally, they would have to put something in the additional field, wouldn’t they? (at least, that’s what they always did before I stopped them the first time…

I now added again the .htaccess rules you described (didn’t change there the changed registration-slug…)

Does that look right (sorry – on that level I have no idea anymore ):

# BEGIN ANTISPAMBLOG REGISTRATION

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} POST

RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} .registrieren*

RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !.*prisma-online.org.* [OR]

RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^$

RewriteRule (.*) http://die-spammers.com/ [R=301,L]

# END ANTISPAMBLOG REGISTRATION

The limitation of WP-Ban is that it’s not working at .htaccess level, so it only really does it’s thing if a spammer is polite enough to access your site normally. You might want to look at something like a plugin that’s going to ban IPs and referrers at the .htaccess level.

Also, had a quick look at your site – I presume you’re talking about http://young-people.ch ? I notice your register page is still /register (albeit translated) – have you tried changing this to something else? There’s eevery chance that the mere translation of the standard ‘register’ slug won’t slow the spammers down.

thanks mlovelock – this sounds good. All of this has worked with me before.

BUT now,

even that I have blocked with WP-Ban *.info – the spammers with that email get through

even that I have additional required field (lots of) – the spammers can register just with a name (nothing else)

even that I have changed, deleted (whatever) wp-signup.php – spammers can register

MY QUESTION IS: Where do they get in??? Did I overlook a loophole???

Please – any further help would be much appreciated!!!

I’ve no doubt they’ll return, but I haven’t had a spam signup for a fair while. The odd one creeps in, but you can’t stop a determined ‘real’ person. But I haven’t been subject to the continuous signups I used to get when I first started my site.

The steps I’ve taken are:

Rename (not remove) wp-signup.php

Use custom bp-register slug

Removed “powered by” type text in the footer and other obviously WP / BP phrases

Installed NoSpamNX

Installed WP-BAN

Installed SI Captcha

Employed the .htaccess rules explained here: http://wpmututorials.com/how-to/spam-blogs-and-buddypress/

Nothing’s perfect against spam, but certainly for me, these things have helped.

Update: Even with an “empty” wp-signup.php they are still registering… really strange! Where could they come in, for they don’t need to fill out any required addition fields…?!?! Any ideas????

Sorry to pick that up… I thought I won with the spammers for I did what stwc wrote in his article (by the way – the site there is down )

But yesterday until now I got about 100 spam-registrations. I did not delete wp-signup.php anymore, because the “reigster” in the admin-bar anywhere else but on the root-blog needs that file… So I thought it’s not a good idea.

BUT now, the spammers registered with just the name. Although I have alot of additional, required field… How is that possible? I guess, they didn’t come in through the bp-register. Maybe the wp-signup.php directly?

I have forums disabled altogether and as far as I know this issue with registering through bb-press should not be an issue anymore.

Would appreciate if someone could give me a further tipp what to do or where they could come from.

PS: @andy (or the developers): Why is it, that on subblogs the admin-bar “register” doesn’t point to the register-slug but is somehow a redirect from wp-signup.php (which doesn’t work anymore, when I delete or empty the file…)

Freakinglogan,

That’s a great looking site you’ve got there. I noticed that you got some javascript popup to work for your registration. How did you resolve this?

@Meerblickzimmer, I am having the same problem and I have checked almost everything that I know could be a problem. I have two installs and the test install has the registration page working perfectly and the live site simply will not display the register page or the registration text on the sidebar no matter what I do.

Here’s the test site:

For some reason, my site still displays whatever page I’m on for non-logged in users, and it does so after the footer for the else case. I have no clue what I did wrong. I have no experience in PHP code, but it looks fine to me. Is there an error I made somewhere?

It also seems that if I set the activity stream to be the home page, the custom home page title that I’ve set in the All-in-One SEO pack doesn’t seem to take effect too. If I want to show logged in users the activity stream as the home page, with my custom home page title, how do I go about doing that?

Thanks.

I think that I may have come up with a solution for my issue with custom signup fields using BuddyPress 1.2.1 on a standalone installation of WordPress 2.9.2. After much digging around I basically ended up with a function that looks a little like the one below in my bp-custom.php file.

function bp_custom_signup_fields( $user_id) {



$bpCustomField = $_POST['bp_custom_field'];



update_usermeta( $user_id, 'bp_custom_field', $bpCustomField );



return $user_id;

}

add_action( 'user_register', 'bp_custom_signup_fields' );

This seems to be working as I want it to, but if anyone is aware of any issues that this may cause, please do let me know.

I too have also tried to use the tutorial that carrotcreative has mentioned, but not managed to get it working. The reason for my problem though I believe is that I am trying to use BuddyPress 1.2.1 on a standalone installation of WordPress 2.9.2. The tutorial is referencing the hook “bp_core_activate_account” which as far as I can see is in turn calling the function “wpmu_activate_signup” which I am guessing doesn’t exist outside of MU.

I’ve tried using the “user_register” too hook onto and run the “update_usermeta” ,but that doesn’t appear to be working. Does anyone know what hook should be used for standalone WordPress in the absence of “bp_core_activate_account”

Thanks.
