How to add an extra registration question to frustrate human-assisted bot registration?
AdminCP -> User Profile Fields -> Add New User Profile Field Profile Field Type: Single-Line Text Field <<Continue>> Use the following information when creating the Profile Field: Title: Anti-spam Protection Description: Enter the first character of the word "Monkey" (Note: Adjust the title to the question you want to ask) Default Value: sausages (Note: can anything except a valid answer!) Field Required: Yes, at registration and profile updating Field Editable by User: Only at registration Private Field: Yes Field Searchable on Members List: No Show on Members List: No Regular Expression: ^[mM]$ Ahh regex, bane of my life. The above allows either upper or lowercase M/m as an acceptable answer. Similar can be done with words e.g. ^yes|YES$ --------------------  |
