Hello,
I've set User Verification plug-in with google re-Captcha v2 enabled on registration page of wordPress, but there are still successful spam bot registrations on my site.
Can you recommend me any other options I may set to block these?

Thank you in advance,
Regards,
Kálmán Hartinger

Hi,
How do you know that those are spam users? Could you please tell me what type of email pattern they're using?

Hello Azizul,
Thanks for the answers, I was doing exactly what you recommended.
It seems today there was no new username generating logic but I am still afraid how they managed to bypass the captcha v2.
I’m not sure if the username block will solve this in the future if the names are changing.

Regards,
Kálmán

Thanks @Azizul – I’ve never had issues with v2 on 50+ other sites I am responsible for, but in this instance I’ll switch to V3 and see how it goes.
