Or you can use an invite plugin – the invite code would be the answer and you manually need to add the question yourself.
thank you, r-a-y. I will focus on these options this weekend. Thanks again

r-a-y, FYI and for what it’s worth for others looking for a similar concept. There is a tiny plugin called “Invitation Code Checker.” By installing it and then putting a code in it, say ‘fifty three’, and changing “enter validation code” in the registration form to “what is fifty and three in letters” – seems to be working so far. Spams have slowed, though I expect they will catch up. By then it is a matter a matter of changing the code like what is the capital of china? In my case, it is a foreign language site, which I hope would add more difficulty to those punks.
Thanks for the help!
yea..i agree that would be a lot easier. i am searching for a plugin like that. if u happen to know one, by all means let me know. many thanks
Hmm, I wonder if it’ll work on a BP/WP single install, I might give it a try tomorrow, I don’t think it can do any harm…
Gene53… the Invitation Code Checker seems to be an MU plugin. Give it a try though and if I find something else along the lines of r-a-y I will post an update here. But at least not it seems the fort is holding.
