Hello,

I have recently experienced spam using JA Job Board. You can see it in the attachment. Could you please advise me with ways to prevent this in the future? I am currently using version 1.5.0.

Thanks.

Hi
To prevent spamming i suggest you do not allow user active account by themself. It should be under administrator moderate.
Thank you

That seems like it could be a lot of work to act as a moderator for user registration. For short term that seems like a good fix, but over time that would be very taxing. Do you or anyone have any other suggestions? Thanks.

have you tried adding some form of captcha on the registration, may help stop spammers registering?
