    Yeah I know what you mean I also tend to only use plugins that are well known. But I am currently using the one I mentioned and so far I’ve had no problems and have been able to clean up accounts that don’t activate after a few days.

    @Metric: Thanks so much for replying! I feel and I hope you would agree that more plugins = more conflicts and troubles. I am at this moment trying to use the least amount of plugins as possible and only the popular and well rated ones. I hope to resolve this without using another plugin and hopefully that Buddypress plugin itself comes up with a solution. Ideally it should because a successful and trouble free registration of a genuine user is the starting point and all the activity starts later! Just like a car gets a trouble free start and then a great ride!

    does anyone know if this plugin works well with current versions of bp or if there’s an alternative? i swear i read something about 1.5 having throttle settings but i couldn’t find anything looking around.

    Try using. A plugin named “Buddypress Pending Activations” it lets you check for accounts that have not yet activated their account, resend activation keys, manually activate accounts, and even delete inactivated accounts in bulk.

    I have the same issue, @hkcharlie and am looking for suggestions on solutions or preventatives, as well. We find that even after we delete a spammy user or block them, it doesn’t deter them from creating a new profile the next day. Once every few months, a bot of some sort will even send spam mail to all of our users, even though we don’t have a “send to all” function in our Buddypress messages.

    OMG @neononcon please tell me how I could be forgiven for my silly delay? Chaos ‘s reigned in my world for a couple of months and I forgot about Buddypress until it turns to wonderful 1.6.
    – Yeah, Theme paid.
    – Too bad I did not notice about the confused users when both Sidewide and Group’s forums are enabled and now I do not know how to do. But I wonder why Buddypress team does not make this better blending the use of them.
    – No spam! Wangward, Akismet and WordPress Hashcash have destroyed them while I was having coffee.

    PS: For anyone who wants to ask me questions, mention me, otherwise I may miss you.

    I’d still like to know whether SSL would help, but I’m going to work through this blog post at the moment : http://wp.tutsplus.com/tutorials/security/best-practices-for-preventing-buddypress-spam-user-registrations/

    @presence-films Try using my approach to registration, see it here: http://www.snaplist.net23.net/register/ I have 0 spammers and the sites been live for a year. @modemlooper Sounds like a great idea. Could you make the conditional so that the admin can decide which condition is applied and if the user does not meet the criteria the plugin prevents them from posting?

    #139231

    So far so good. I installed a captcha. Got some legacy spam from some of the users that are spammers but I am slowly removing them. Great advice. Thanks to all. That said, the journey is far from over.

    Also, I am running WP Version 3.4.1 and couple of more things that causes the same error. When in Front End neither one of the Admin Options: “Mark user as spammer” or “Delete user’s account” work from front end. They give you a 404 page. Again, it works fine from back end.

    Also, When logged as admin in front end I click on “My Account” ->”Settings”->”Capabilities” I am getting a message highlighted in red:”You do not have access to this page.”

    On a related note… It would be nice if the Site Admin was notified when someone is banned by a Group Admin. In large site that allows member group creation this could help combat spam and other problem users.

    @valuser: thanks for this idea (.htaccess). I’m going to look into this.

    @4ella: so here’s the official answer from Login Ninja: “Unfortunately Login Ninja doesn’t support BuddyPress forms.” So how are you using it in BuddyPress???

    I have no idea how to attribute success (if any) to various methods employed.

    In addition to the numerous plugins and captchas some sites have also added lines to the .htaccess file

    Some have added (in addition to the various plugins).

    The plugin Cookies-for-comments and the lines as suggested at https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/cookies-for-comments/


    > using register instead of wp-sign-up

    `RewriteCond %{HTTP_COOKIE} !^.*XXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXXX.*$`
    `RewriteRule ^register – [F,L]`

    and also

    `RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} POST
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} .register*
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !.*yoursite.com.* [OR]
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^$
    RewriteRule (.*) http://lmgtfy.com/?q=spammer [R=301,L]`

    So the .htaccess file begins like this

    `# BEGIN ANTISPAMBLOG REGISTRATION

    RewriteEngine On
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_COOKIE} !^.*xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.*$
    RewriteRule ^register – [F,L]

    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_METHOD} POST
    RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} .register*
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_REFERER} !.*yoursite.com.* [OR]
    RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} ^$
    RewriteRule (.*) http://lmgtfy.com/?q=spammer [R=301,L]

    # END ANTISPAMBLOG REGISTRATION`

    Frankly I have no idea how and whether any of this works. The best that can be said is that spam has been reduced considerably. Fingers crossed.

    @4ella: I see now that Login Ninja is a paid ($15) Envato/WebFactory plugin. Only sold 135 copies. But when I tested the Captcha on the WebFactory site, it showed a standard WordPress login screen. But I’m using BuddyPress with its Registration screen (and currently using SI Captcha on that). Will it work on BuddyPress? Is that what you’re doing? Thanks.

    @valuser: Spam-Destroyer: doesn’t support my version and seems pretty experimental.
    @pantone: email verification is already there. They just verify it.
    I also have SI Captcha for additional verification on registration form, but they’re able to get around that somehow (do not know how).

    They keep coming! (the registration spammers)
    @4ella: there is no WP plugin called “Login Ninja”. I see it on CodeCanyon, but what is it?
    – I found and installed two plugins: “Stop Spammer Registrations” and “Custom Registration Link”. No benefit I can see.
    – But I did discover the “Whassup” plugin which is pretty cool and shows the IPs that can then be banned. But doing it manually takes way too much time.
    I’m going nuts trying to deal with these registration spammers (~30/day). Help! THANKS.

    I have not yet launched my buddypress site, but this is definitely one of my concerns.

    If I required new users to verify their account with an e-mail activation link, would this help prevent spammers?

    This is my last 3 days (100 logins) log: There’s only 1 successful spammer login , without IP ban I would have 100 new accounts.

    Thanks for this, guys.
    @modemlooper: actual humans? Hmmm… never thought of that. Could be. I’ll just delete them case-by-case.
    @gh0zt: Using FB… that’s an idea but I know that some of my users hate (and do not use) FB.
    @4ella: I assumed spammers just rolled over their IPs continuously.
    Will study and try these ideas. More welcome. THANKS!

    I use Login Ninja , time to time I ban them with “yearly ban” bad IP’s , I have about 30 banned IP’s till now , it is not too much work to ban them , because spammers use only one IP to create in 1 run 100’s accounts (maybe using XRUMER ecc. read it on http://www.blackhatworld.com , in Ninja login log you will see that spammer during the night tried to create another 100’s accounts with banned IP) . So my advice is to ban every new bad IP and you will avoid 90% of spam , your only work is to ban every first new account with new IP which is in my case 1 ban in 2 weeks. Spammers will notice (probably using scrapebox – hrefer) that their run didn’t work and scrapebox or another tool will automaticaly remove your address from their lists. If this works some of them share your address on SEO blackhat websites all over the world , then your chances to get a spam rapidly increases.
    P.S – I am not a spammer :-) , I like white-grey hat SEO but I read a lot about blackhat SEO techniques to avoid the spam on my websites
