It seems they don’t like that.
But I am not running a business either, just keeping a community alive.

In reply to: [Donations via PayPal] This organization can’t accept donations right now.Hi,
I have a website for many years. I have been using this Donation button for years. Recently it started to behave as described here. Nothing has changed in my PayPal account or site. So, I called PayPal and they told me that in order to get money that way I needed to change my PayPal account to an official Charity!!! Which is pretty crazy because I collect like $50/year just to cover part of the user community costs I manage.
So, the problem comes from PayPal directly.
Regards,
Fran

In reply to: User Registration: How to really really disable itGreat advice to check the logs.
I haven’t had any case in the last day, so it’s looking good.
They were coming from multiple IPs for sure as I was blocking them with the anti-spam plug-in.
Thanks so much,

In reply to: User Registration: How to really really disable itThanks for the advice.
I’ve done a couple of things and I haven’t gotten any spam registration in the last few hours, which is encouraging.
One, I have made sure that both in the WordPress regular Dashboard AND in the WPForo settings the registration is disabled. I’m not sure if both were disabled when I posted the first message.
Two, I have remove all the Socializer log in, which I wonder if it could have been the way the spammers were trying to get it.
I’ve checked a couple of the sites that check the site for virus and the site looks clean.
I’ll report in a few days if everything is resolved with those actions.
Thanks,

In reply to: User Registration: How to really really disable ithi,
thanks for the comments.
Yes, I have the box uncheck and I have Stop Spammers and, yet, Stop Spammers still reports bogus spam registrations. I just added two to the not allowed list.
So, what is the link that the spammers are using that still tries to create a user?
I disabled the social media plugin too, but still getting those.
Thanks,
regards,
Fran
