What it does
Any site that lets people register or log in will eventually attract bots. They create fake accounts, fill your user list with junk entries and probe login forms with automated attempts. Cleaning that up by hand takes time, and it never really stops. This addon puts a verification step in front of those forms using Google reCAPTCHA, so a visitor has to pass Google's human check before the form goes through.
The plugin works inside UsersWP, which it requires, and attaches reCAPTCHA to the forms UsersWP already provides. Setup needs little configuration, and administrators can adjust the security settings to suit their community. It fits membership sites, social platforms and other community-driven websites where open registration is part of how the site works and keeping the user database clean matters to the people running it.
Best for
- Membership sites built with UsersWP
- Social and community sites with open registration
- Site owners tired of fake account signups
