    Hi all,

    Just received a message via email that I am puzzled over. Here it is:

    New user registration on your site at…

    Then it goes on to give the user’s id and email address.

    Can anyone please clue me in as to what this is please?

    I am confused. Why would someone register as a new user on my business website?

    Thanks!

    BTW, it is probably important to mention that this went to my admin email address at my webhost. Weird?

    Do you have “Membership: Anyone can register” turned on?

    1. WP always sends a mail when someone new registers.

    2.

    Spammers, when they’ve found you they’ll keep coming.

    3. Disable new members (see above) you can always add new members manually under users.
