Creating a password for registration
Hello,
I have had some slight difficulties involving users from another site registering and spamming my forum in the past. Is there a setting that allows me to create a password that must be entered in order to register on the forum, or a way to make it invite only?
I've looked under User Registration Settings, and I can't seem to find an option.
If it helps to know: I am the founder of the forum, and it is a free forum.
When you are in User Registration Settings, just set Account Activation to By Admin. You would then have to approve the new accounts that are registered. That's the closest thing that could work.

You could also set it so new users cant post without approval, that will make it so they cant spam your forum and you wont have to confirm every new member
