Hello,
I currently use the extension “Theme my login” with reCAPTCHA but I’m flooded with inscriptions “spam”.
The theme Newspaper has a tool for recording / registration but does not allow any security to my knowledge.
Could you help me use the system included in the theme of secure manner to prevent pollution of registrations of “bots”.
thank you a lot
ps: newspaper 4.6.3

Hi,
The theme frontend registration/login form is custom made and it should not be targeted by bots. To test it you could disable the login from Theme Panel and see if the registration spam is still there – http://screencast.com/t/IuYz274OpPXM
Also check the measures presented here – http://codex.wordpress.org/Hardening_WordPress
Thank you!
I think I misspoke . When I allow enrollment, 60% of new subscribers are bots.
Is it possible to integrate reCAPTCHA in registration form theme?
Hi,
You can use a plugin for this: http://beginnersbook.com/2013/10/5-free-plugins-adding-captcha-wordpress-blog-comments/
The theme’s login widget use the WordPress registration system so if you want to use theme’s login widget you can implement the captcha plugin to it by using a shortcode or a similar method, like did here for the social login: https://forum.tagdiv.com/topic/where-to-put-this-code/ or you can try an anti-spam plugin.
Thanks for the message!
Hi,
same problem. Spammers are so many registers. When I put a captcha – it is not displayed when registering. That’s when you need to appear CAPTCHA, but it is not, although the settings specified in the registration form displayed.
How can I fix this?
Hi,
Unfortunately the theme sign in/register widget is custom and you will need custom modification to implement a captcha plugin to it. Here you can find the code – http://screencast.com/t/jP6zEZ2z
You can disable the theme sign in widget and a Captcha plugin should work with wordpress log in/register option.
We did not made any test using a related plugin so I cannot suggest a specific on.
Thanks!
I am wondering that is there anyone who has some positive process on making captcha plugin into “newspaper” ‘s popup login/register form?
