Registration Randomizer
By kanha
Registration Randomizer creates unique URLs for the registration page and checks that the referrer of the registration action matches these URLs in an attempt to prevent automated spammers from registering new users. It also tarpits IP addresses that fail the token check to prevent repeat attempts.

You must log in to post replies.There has been a lot of spam fighting plugin, have you tried using them
https://github.com/beck24/spam_throttle
https://github.com/beck24/spam_login_filter
https://github.com/iionly/captcha (Supports Elgg 3.0)
Registration Randomizer does a completely different thing. It stops user registration. Iionly plugins are excellent and best of the lot - thank you Rohit for the links but Captcha is something I do not like at the time of registration, I prefer a simple registration. I know yes, Captcha is universal and has come here to stay. Thanks for your input- I really appreciate the help.
spam login filter does the same thing, this plugin checks IP address and email address against the stop forum spam databases to keep spammers at bay (be it a bot or actual human). There was also a feature that restrict user from specific county but the feature was removed at a later stage. However, I have created pull request that might bring the feature back along with few improvement for elgg 3. (https://github.com/beck24/spam_login_filter/pull/13)
I am using the plugin and I can assure you the plugin is very effective in stopping spam.
Registration Randomizer creates unique URLs for the registration page
BUT
Spam login filter plugin checks IP address and email address against the stop forum spam databases. Does this create unique URLs / URI ?? I do not know.
Once again, many thanks for your creation of pull requests. This will be really helpful.
