As for BuddyPress, delete spammers and spams with links leading to viagra, etc. Re SEO plugins and sitemaps, these are supposed to help with Google ranking not the other way around. Site URL?

Topic: Forcing signups via BP not WP in BP1.5

in forum How-to & Troubleshooting

I have a lot of spam signups. I was using bp-registration-options but now I’ve upgraded to WP1.5 it’s broken. However I have, at Boone’s advice, changed the name of the bp register page to ‘welcome’ and that seems to be working. The other problem is that I still get bogus signups via wp-login and I can’t find any good way to stop them – I tried SABRE but that is broken too. Right now I have “Disable BuddyPress to WordPress profile syncing?” set to no, and “New User Default Role” set to blocked.

Any further suggestions?

Hi there.. I have my main blog setup nicely to deal with splogs and comment spam. What worries me is that I don’t see any default setup for the newly created blogs that people are creating. Is there anything I can do on my end as admin, to set something up by default so that they don’t have to?

Thanks!

@boonebgorges We’ve spent the better part of an hour trying to debug the BP codex page, but it won’t render the Google Docs embed, even when we add it in the admin back end.

WordPress.com officially supports Google Docs embeds announcement, support page, and the embed works properly on several different test sites we tried it on. The problem seems exclusive to buddypress.org.

Could you guys up one of us to super admin for a bit so we can check if it’s stripping embeds by normal editors as some sort of spam control measure?

Thanks!

I went through and deleted a series of plugins. The problem, I deleted a particularly useful part of my site.

In the admin bar, I had an “admin” menu item that allowed me to “edit a users profile”, “mark a user as spam”, “edit an avatar”, or “delete a user” from the frontend.

Does anyone know what plugin does this?? I used this feature daily and really miss it.

Hi everyone. Long story short, I had to uninstall WordPress and Buddypress. After re-installing WordPress, I created a dummy account, and recieved the confirmation email. (see below)

Once i got this reply, I’m thinking, “Great! Things are looking good!” Then I install Buddypress. I try to create a new user/dummy account. I check the email account the reply was supposed to be sent to. No email. Spam box…no email. Now, in my Dashboard/User section, it shows the new user. However, i can’t sign in using the account.

Any ideas? Thank you very much inadvance!

Any way to stop receiving spam? Why doesn’t this site have any spam control plugins to prevent this?
Anyone else receive these messages or is it just me?

I don’t think this is a problem with Buddypress, so much as any popular WordPress site. They will get plenty of spambots registering for accounts.

There are plenty of solutions including:

Captcha plugins like SI Captcha or WP-Recaptcha
Akismet
Bad Behavior
Etc,

However, the best solution is active moderation. And I’m guessing the crew that runs this site is also busy developing Buddypress, bbPress, etc. to spend a bunch of time moderating this site. Perhaps they should seek out volunteers to help moderate.

DoctorDR

Just a quick check to see if anyone else has a solution for making a BP community invite only, such that new users can register but where registration is then confirmed manually by Site Admin, either singularly or in batches.

What I’d like to do is to provide a layer of control against human spam and control the uptake of access to the community, to manage its growth and avoid dilution.

The reason chaging the users status to 99 will hide them is because it marks the user as a spammer. Which means only an admin can view their profile. However, thus far it has been the only way I have been able to accomplish the task of hiding the administrator.

There is a would-be fantastic abandoned Buddypress plugin that breaks with 1.5. When you activate the plugin, it creates a whole bunch of pages over and over again for Privacy and Maintenance templates. It also seems to spam SQL queries of doom.

http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/bp-privacy/

I would absolutely love to provide fine-grained privacy controls for my members. Would someone adopt this abandoned plugin?

I use SI CAPTCHA Anti-Spam.

I have “Comment author must have a previously approved comment” checked.

I have “Hold a comment in the queue if it contains 1 or more links” set.

the author must fill out name and email and they must be registered and logged in to comment.

and I STILL get splogged!!

I have selected that I should be notified when anyone posts a comment but I don’t receive the notification.

With the same settings and same plugins my other sites don’t get splogged so I think it must be something to do with BP.

Help!

Have you tested with the testing feature of wp-mail-smtp at the bottom of the settings screen?

If you send an email to yourself it logs the whole process, successful or otherwise. That should give a clue as to where the problem is.

If the log shows it was sent successfully did it go to a spam or trash folder?

That log could be a bit too long to post here but it could be linked to…

This seems to be a wordpress rather than buddypress issue so it might be an idea to ask on the wordpress.org forums or elsewhere such as http://wordpress.stackexchange.com/

First, ask users to check if activation email went to spam folder. If not, wome webhosts have problem with WP mail. Some have used this plugin successfully https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-mail-smtp/

The spammers google for your registration page. If they can’t find it there….

And I’m suggesting it as one to help – not the be-all end-all. Do that in conjunction with other things and it does help. I could also argue how captcha doesn’t work well for human too I’m not a fan.
