So many spam registration. Is there any best plugin to Block Spam Registration.

Question

Google ReCaptcha plugin not working in q2a 1.8.0 as spammer bypasses recaptcha and do spam registration.

Please anyone help me with best solution

Comments

ReCaptcha only helps filtering out bots. Human spammers can still input the captchas. I hardly believe there is a workaround for that rather than filtering each post out

Answer 1

I have seen this issue. it is very difficult when too many spam registrations are verified and then they post spam posts.

right now, only one solution I can think of is route your traffic thru cloudflare.com DNS. they will filter out traffic from SPAM ip.

Answer 2

I guess the best practice for this is to check if entered email address is exists or not (in addition to recaptcha).

You may get used of this php class here.
