My nodebb instance had 50 new joiners over a month, all posting spam.
I had to turn on Admin approval to try and limit this.
But Im still getting Spammers. Location of IP gives a clue as most of these accounts come from a certain area, but its impossible to know for sure.
How to enable code that on registration they have to type why they want to join forum, so admin has more idea on what their motivations are? -

What do you mean by ‘leverage the post queue’?
nodebb-plugin-registration doesnt seem to be on the ACP list of plugins?

This specific feature allows you to vet all incoming post requests in the form of a queue before they are applied so you can decide if they are appropriate or not before releasing them.

Correct. It needs to be installed using the CLI.

ok, yes Ive seen the queue, it shows IP, but doesnt have a field for comments from registrant.
It would be better if nodebb had this plugin included in ACP list, as not only then do you know its approved and should work, but many people cant or dont want to use CLI on the server

It’s not designed for that. It merely serves as a gateway between posts appearing on your form or not.

That’s a question for the NodeBB devs but in all honesty you can’t not use the CLI when installing nodebb so to be this isn’t a big deal.
