    "BuddyDrive is a BuddyPress 1.7 plugin that uses WordPress built in features for the management of its post attachments to allow the members of a community to share a file or a list of files thanks to the BuddyDrive folders. Depending on the BuddyPress settings, the access to the BuddyDrive user's content can be restricted to the owner of the item only, people that know the password the owner set for his item, the friends of the owner of the file, the members of the group the content is attached to, or everybody !

  • Try the honeypot method or another that is invisible to users. Some could potentially be bypassed, but their presence is often enough to thwart automated efforts.

      Honeypot for BuddyPress registration didn't work for me at all. There's no random element in the field ID and the checkbox can easily be brute forced (there's only 2 possibilities!).

  • because Wordpress and Buddypress is all stored on a server that you have access to, then you have complete control over your member's information.
  • Did we mention that Wordpress and Buddypress are run on a GPL license as well? That's a fancy way of saying "it's free."
  • there are other parts of Ning that Buddypress doesn't have right out of the box, namely events, photo and video sharing.

  • you're in charge of handling hosting. And unless you have a cousin who works at a hosting website that'll hook you up, well, that's going to cost some money too.

Best Practices for Preventing BuddyPress Spam User Registrations | Wptuts+ - 0 views

best practices buddypress spam preventing

shared by Vernon Fowler on 18 Sep 12 - No Cached
  • The first level of security is to change the footer text to remove mentions of WordPress and BuddyPress. Spammers target the words “proudly powered by WordPress and BuddyPress” in search engines to find sites they can compromise.
  • In BuddyPress, the default URL for the registration page is “http:/yoursitedomain.com/register”. This is why spambots include the “insite:register” when performing the search described in the above section. Make it harder for them to find your site by easily changing the default slug for BuddyPress in your wp-config.php file.
  • We use the honeypot technique to thwart spambots and it has worked pretty well from our experience. I didn’t invent the idea, but I built this implementation for BuddyPress and it works like a champ.

  • All you need to do is set the slug for the registration page that has been created. If you’re on BuddyPress 1.5+ that is.
  • It enables you to block IP addresses and even entire domains from accessing your site, a very useful thing to do against known bots trying to create fake BuddyPress user accounts.
  • Be wary of trying every single security plugin under the sun, as this slows down your site and adds to your maintenance workload by having more things to update and go through if something breaks. At first, stick to the highest rated ones that have proven themselves over time with a lot of users. One such plugin, which is highly recommended by many BuddyPress and WordPress users, is Bad Bahavior. This plugin will not only block a lot of spam, but will make your site invisible to many bots in the first place and thereby prevent fake registrations.
