Would something like Ban Hammer do that for you? Theres an updated list of domains to block at https://github.com/wesbos/burner-email-providers
Nice, but how can I make that work on my buddypress?
Ban Hammer is a wordpress plugin. Apologies I should have made that clearer in my original reply.
Hopefully that combination will work for you.
Hi Werny, I made a plugin just for that and you can find it here: https://wordpress.org/plugins/validator-pizza/
It uses an API that is always up to date with new disposable domains. So you don’t have to manually update the list yourself.
Let me know if that solves your problem 🙂
My pages uses too many plugins.
I cannot install another one.
Is ther a way to integrate that into Buddypress?
I think this blocker would be helpful for all Buddypress-developer.
Maybe you can use other services like this: https://temporaremail.com . Generally such sites are directly perceived as spam. It is very helpful to find the right one.
Thanks @tompec!
I tried the Plugin Validator-Pizza and this seems to work for now.
But are you sure ALL temp domains will be blocked?
I made some tests now, and the major temp-mail-servers were blocked. But not all of them
Maybe there is a way where I can update the server list manually from time to time?
Thanks for your help.
Alternatively, you might consider using a “whitelist” only plugin, in my experience very effective in keeping out most bots plus temporary email addresses.
what plugin do you recommend for that?
Werny
I use BP 10.6.1 and the plugin linked below works fine on my site.
But it is now 8 years old, and is likely incompatible with newer versions of BP.
You should text it thoroughly before trying it on your live site.
BP Restrict Signup by Email Domain
