What it does
Open registration forms tend to attract spam accounts, bots and people you never meant to let in. This plugin adds restriction rules to the registration forms you build with WPEverest's User Registration & Membership tools. You can allow only certain email domains, keep a blacklist of entries you want to refuse, or filter by IP address and country, so new accounts match your site's membership policy before they are created.
Beyond blocking, it gives you control over what happens to people who do register. You can assign or restrict user roles with conditional rules, redirect users after registration or login depending on the restriction outcome, and show custom messages that explain why a sign-up was refused. Captcha options add bot protection, the plugin is translatable for multilingual sites, and restricted registrations can be reviewed and managed from the WordPress dashboard.
Best for
- Membership sites that want to filter who can register
- Company or school portals limited to one email domain
- Community sites dealing with spam or bot sign-ups
Features
Email domain restrictions
Limit registration to specific email domains, which suits schools, companies or communities where every valid member shares an address domain.
Custom blacklist
Build a blacklist of entries you want to refuse so known bad domains or addresses cannot create accounts on your site.
IP and country rules
Restrict sign-ups by IP address, and use the Maxmind integration to apply country based form restrictions to your registration forms.
Conditional role assignment
Assign or restrict user roles during registration using conditional rules, so each new user gets the level of access you intend.
Captcha and bot protection
Add Google reCAPTCHA, hCaptcha or Cloudflare Turnstile to registration forms to cut down on automated and fraudulent sign-ups.
Redirects and custom messages
Send users to different pages after registration or login based on the restriction outcome, and show your own messages to explain what happened.
Translation ready
The plugin is fully translatable and works with WordPress multilingual plugins, so restriction rules and messages work across languages, including through Loco Translate.
Dashboard management
View, edit and manage restricted registrations and form settings from the WordPress dashboard without leaving the admin area.

Questions about User Registration Form Restriction
Does this work on its own or with another plugin?

Can I block registrations from certain countries?
Yes. Through its Maxmind integration the plugin supports country based form restriction, and you can also restrict sign-ups by IP address. Users who are blocked can be shown a custom message or redirected to a page you choose.
