Hi, everyone. I’m sure you’re sick of me by now, but I need help again!
We’ve had a few spam user registrations come through and send out messages to all of our users. Is there a way to moderate user registrations e.g. – new users must be approved by an admin? I see there are plugins to do this, but also realize adding plugins to CBOX isn’t recommended by and large. What can I do?
Hi Joanna,
You might find this plugin — written by the Commons/CBOX team — useful —
https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-rsed/
I’ve used it on several CBOX sites to good effect to restrict registration to particular domains, such as .edu and .org
Best,
Matt
Also worth looking at https://wordpress.org/plugins/bp-registration-options/ which will hold new signups for moderation.
BTW, there’s no reason not to add other useful plugins to a CBOX install – it’s just that we may not have tested them.
Cheers, Christian
