There is no instance that we want users added to our database, for any reason. I take it that we do not have the option to turn this off so we will look for another option to what is, otherwise, an excellent free plugin. Thank you anyway! * ![](https://i0.wp.com/nomadcoder.com/temp/give.png?ssl=1) * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[GiveWP - Donation Plugin and Fundraising Platform] Disable ability to create user acct](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/disable-ability-to-create-user-acct/) * Thread Starter [A.

I do not want anyone to be able to register for the website when they make a donation or if an error occurs. How do I disable this? * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[Featured Image Thumbnail Grid] Version 7.10 – fatal error](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/version-7-10-fatal-error/) * Plugin Author [A.

They say that they have attempted to reach. me via slack and via our contact page (which was broken). There is no message in slack. I have reached out to them again, fixed the contact page and will keep looking for an update in slack [@nomadcoder](https://wordpress.org/support/users/nomadcoder/) * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[(Simply) Guest Author Name] (Simply) Guest Author Name Vulnerability](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/simply-guest-author-name-vulnerability/) * Plugin Author [A.

I have tried to exploit almost every possible input field and have not been able to cause any cross scripting errors so whatever this is, it’s pretty obscure. I am going to try to reach out to patch stack today to see if I can find out what the issue is before I send out an update. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[(Simply) Guest Author Name] (Simply) Guest Author Name Vulnerability](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/simply-guest-author-name-vulnerability/) * Plugin Author [A.

I am still waiting for the expected email from patchstack telling me how to duplicate the issue. I will keep testing and I can guess as to the cause and perhaps fix something but it may not be the something that I need to fix. I hope that makes sense. Wordfence has this listed as medium security and patchstack has it listed as low severity. Either way, there is no risk to you from your users and this will be resolved as soon as possible. * Forum: [Plugins](https://wordpress.org/support/forum/plugins-and-hacks/) In reply to: [[(Simply) Guest Author Name] 4.36 is vulnerable to Cross Site Scripting (XSS)](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/4-36-is-vulnerable-to-cross-site-scripting-xss/) * Plugin Author [A.

WPScan does not reflect the issue and I do not have the ability to test it without specifics.
