How to block accounts created by robots ?

Viewing 3 replies - 1 through 3 (of 3 total)

  • Do robots fill all fields in form ? If yes, you can try to create hidden/invisible (with CSS) field (for example check box) which can not be filled (if you can add this condition with your form creator). So if robot will check this field, account will be not created, normal visitors/users will not fill it, bc. they will not see it.

    You can try also another captcha solution. Maybe robots come from same ip address, you can try to block them with some plugins …
