My only suggestion for improvement: when active, the register link is replaced by a text message that says “Manual registration is disabled”. It would be good if I could edit the message.
Otherwise I love it, it has completely stopped annoying bot account registrations.

Works perfectly. Stopped all bot registrations on two websites I manage. Plugin says not tested with current version, but I’m on 4.81 and it works fine.

I hate bots that pass my custon login pages. Now, this plugin solved my problem with a single click of installation and it’s what I wanted for months.
Thank you!

I have a custom registration form and don’t want users bypass it. This plugin does force users to go through the custom form.
Thanks.

I was having trouble with bots registering through the default WP registration page. I disabled the link in wp-admin but they were doing it directly from the registration page. I am handling user registration via custom login page so I did not need a default registration. I googled the options, downloaded “Disabled WPRegistration Page” plugin and it works like a charm.
