Mobile User Registration
New users CAN be allowed to register remotely without setting “anyone can register” in “general/settings”. The client is android and in addition to the android java client code using the ‘org.xmlrpc library’, the following was added to ‘functions.php’ in the child theme: function xml_add_method( $methods ) { $methods[‘xxx.wp_create_user’] = ‘xxx_wp_create_user’; return $methods; } add_filter( ‘xmlrpc_methods’, … Read more
How to stop WordPress emailing a password

Where are people registering on my website?
My research: “By default, WordPress websites allow for user registrations from a specific link: http://www.example.com/wp-login.php?action=register. These spambots are programmed to go looking for that link to register fake users.” So, your first step is to change the login page from wp-login.php to something else. Unfortunately, this is not the easiest thing to do by yourself. … Read more
