 * hello,
    In my opinion, new users should not be released immediately after their
   registration.
 * It would be better if you could approve or reject them only after review.
 * I currently receive daily countless registrations with fakemail addresses of 
   which one does not know what they intend.
 * This also saves having to install extra plugins like banhammer or wp-approve-
   user etc. – the less plugins the better.
 * thank you

 * Hi,
 * Thanks for your suggestion to approve users before logging in. We will take note
   of it. In the meantime, we have Honeypot integration in our plugin to solve this
   issue. Please refer [https://pluginsware.com/anti-spam/](https://pluginsware.com/anti-spam/)
 * Thanks

 * Hello,
    maybe you shouldn’t offer the free version – if you want to play through
   all functions extensively, but find that you have to install additional plugins
   first (e.g. WP Approve User) to close gaps for security – then you lose the lust
   for pro, even if (only) this has your honeypot (google recaptcha e.g. is critical
   in the EU – needs an extra cookie policy) … anne
