How can I prevent unwanted subsities from being created by users?

    You, sir, are a true leader, thank you for being the first to respond. I’m new to using multisite. Allowing users to register subsites themselves can be very dangerous for me.

    Either way, it’s time to jump in and learn to swim. I’m diving headfirst and will explore the use of this unfortunately neglected plugin. Every other plugin I’ve tried from your company has worked superiorly; I’m using them all, or so I thought. Once I become familiar with it, I’ll share my findings here in his discussion first, then on my blogs.

    Cheers

    Awesome, welcome, Leroy!

    I, I mean, we were able to get it installed. It looks to be what I need before going live. I state we because tech support was great at answering the questions I had. They wouldn’t stop helping me; it was a great experience!

    Side note: I’m branding the WordPress dashboard using the Branda plugin.

    Have you seen it, no?

    Okay, ok, getting back to Anti-Splog. Pattern Matching has my attention, so let’s start with a good read on PCRE. I’m sure to be like Neo in the movie Matrix when I finish. Only with better tech and food choices. And, I’m uploading this stuff to my brain wirelessly.

    Slower, but much less intrusive.

      Hello JC

      I can see that Predrag moved on with the above ticket and narrowed it down to some issue with Branda that’s reported to our devs already. Let’s keep the discussion about that issue in its own thread please.

      As for Anti-Splog, it doesn’t prevent user registrations, only new site creations and blog posts created in these newly created sites.

      Warm regards,
      Dimitris
