    Default Website Sign Up Bots

    Is there any way you can prevent bots from signing up to your website, is there anything you can put in the sign-up page to prevent the bots signing up?

    Thanks

    Do you use recaptacha ?
    I use it, and I don't have much spam. However reading the following post, the so called honey-pot technique, looks like a good way to address the issue. (if the recaptacha isnot enough)

    I've done this but and its worked but its affected my create account page.

    How can I make each different form on its own line and how can I clean up the bottom thats arrowed?

    Thanks

    That happened because of the recaptacha module ?

    You have some floating issues in there. But if it was ok, then you've place something wrong.
    The module ( as I remember) places a line of code at the bottom, and things start to mess up at the top.
    Can't say what, because I don't know your template.
    Use the Chrome Dev Tools to see where it breaks.
    But usually, place a div ( or a class) to clear the floats

    So a example at tpl_modules_create_account.php:
    PHP Code:
    <label class="inputLabel" for="firstname"><?php echo ENTRY_FIRST_NAME?></label>
    <?php echo zen_draw_input_field('firstname'etcetc....); ?>
    <div class="clear"></div>
    css:
    Code:
    .clear {
    clear:both;
    }
    If that's the case

    This is what I have at the very end of tpl_modules_create_account.php

    PHP Code:
    <?php
      
    if (CUSTOMERS_REFERRAL_STATUS == 2) {
    ?>
    <fieldset>
    <legend><?php echo TABLE_HEADING_REFERRAL_DETAILS?></legend>
    <label class="inputLabel" for="customers_referral"><?php echo ENTRY_CUSTOMERS_REFERRAL?></label>
    <?php echo zen_draw_input_field('customers_referral'''zen_set_field_length(TABLE_CUSTOMERS'customers_referral''15') . ' id="customers_referral"'); ?>
    <div class="clear"></div>
    </fieldset>
    <?php }  ?>
      <div class="recaptcha">
     <?php echo recaptcha_get_html(true'light''normal');  ?>
    </div>
    Your recaptcha is not at the end ( unless is floating in some way)
