Thanks for this! I’ve been waiting for Register Plus to update and work properly for a while, but after installing SABRE I don’t have to wait any longer. I’ve been looking for a solution to this for a while and had a lot of trouble finding one for some reason.

The only thing I don’t like is that the Comment Policy box for SABRE is plain text only, but oh well. Within seconds it stopped a bot, and if it keeps that up, that’s all that matters. I also REALLY like that I can require confirmation for registration and it will automatically delete accounts after a week if they don’t confirm.

Great reviews and recommendations. Thanks again!

mocona,
The only visual differences that you will see are on the Register page. The plug-in will add some new fields and the invitation code field as well.

Somewhere in the settings you can add or remove the invitation codes, but I entered all of mine manually and just clicked add. It works well and has stopped most of the spam registrations, but I’m still looking into the others.

Dear Kyle,
I just install Register plus myself, but wondering where is the widget? and how is the invitation working? did we invent the code ourself?

Just to update everyone…it seems that Register Plus hasn’t completely cut out the spam registrations that I was receiving, but it has cut them back down to about 1 a day or maybe less often than that.

I’m still not convinced that I need to try the Sabre plugin, but I’ll just keep testing Register Plus for now!

Haha, I know! They were driving me crazy! I’m still waiting to see if the first one on my list works. If not then I’m going to try the second, but it’s a good start.

THANK YOU! I’ve been having a lot of these lately.
