    Hi everybody, we use WP-SpamShield and it blocks user registration on GD registration page. (when plugin disabled everything works)

    Do you know any user spam registration solution that is known to work ok with GD?

    Thank you.

    Alex, the question was rather about general, more comprehensive WordPress antispam solution, not only the one that protects GD, but all WordPress user registrations.

    We are not great fans of captcha, the solutions we were using WP-Spamshield, was providing antispam protection without using captcha.
    Anything else you have in mind?
    Thank you

    Check out this addon https://userswp.io/downloads/recaptcha/ and see if it’s what you’re looking for.

    Hi Kor, Alex already recommended it. Please see what I mentioned in my previous reply to Alex:

    “We are not great fans of captcha, the solutions we were using WP-Spamshield, was providing antispam protection without using captcha. Anything else you have in mind?”

    Thank you.

    Hi Elijah,

    Well, the addon I’ve shared above is from our https://userswp.io/ plugin. Not sure if you’ve seen it before. You might want to check out other addons here https://userswp.io/downloads/category/addons/

    Thanks!

    Hi, Kor, I have seen it and still uses recaptcha, right?

    This is the point that I was making numerous times in this thread – our previous solution did not use captcha.
    I’ll try to rephrase the question – based on your user base experience or user feedback – is there an antispam solution that you are aware of that:
    1. Does not use captcha
    2. Covers more than just protecting GD – with GD wordpress registration is open to everyone, so spam user creation is possible bypassing the gd form altogether.

    Thank you.
