    Hi,

    I am searching for a way to block unwanted people to register.
    There is a lot of spam on my website.

    I have read some other topics about this but the plug-ins advised are nog updated for 1 or even 7 years so they are not accurate.

    Worpress 4.9.5
    Buddypress 2.9.4
    Theme KLEO (bought 3 weeks ago, no version mentioned)
    URL http://hondengek.nl

    Who can help me?

    Which plugins are you talking about? Some plugins can work for years after the last update.

    I recommend moderating new sign ups using BP Registration Options and coupling that with required registration fields that allow you to judge who is requesting signup. ( “About me” for example, spammers typically fill this with spam, so a dead giveaway, “location” is another one, spammers rarely declare their location to be that reflected in their IP address).
