Ok. I found a solution.

The spamming bots uses
wp-signup.php
wp-login.php?action=register
to register users (I found out)

So i removed wp-signup.php from my wordpress install in cpanel using file manager.

I then installed WPS Hide Login wordpress plugin (FREE) can change login path ( in general settings dashboard)

domain.com/wp-admin/ -> domain.com/staff-only/

Doing so will disable wp-login.php?action=register and therefore no more spam registrations :p

the only part of that list of fixes and update in the thread that relates to user registration spam, is implementing recaptcha.
further more it is slightly outdated.

i started receiving user registration spam earlier this week 21st April. the update was already made last week.
which meant it didn't really address the issue.

The suggestions i've shared in this thread has been working btw. i have not received a single user registration spam since

not the page spammers will us.
they will target.

domain.tld/wp-login?action=register
domain.tld/wp-signup.php

as for my site, recaptcha is working but didn't stop spammers from accessing the above url so eventhough i had recaptcha on my registration page, they were still able to register url those 2 default wordpress registration pages.

Really need a quick fix for ReCaptcha, it simply isn't working with Sign In / Registration (not shown on pages when enabled), I'm getting lots of fake registrations as well....lots of spam emails were sent to my email account and my hosting provider is really pissed off, so I had to delete/suspend my email accounts.

Also -> NON-Woo plugin:

1. User cannot add comments in non-Woo version even if DISCUSSION -> ALLOW COMMENTS is checked in nad ANYONE CAN LEAVE A COMMENT checked in DISCUSSION (I'm using DaVinci theme, latest update)
2. DaVinci theme : CUSTOMIZATION -> SOCIAL MEDIA -> Instagram widget (Iframe) does not show Insagram page in Chrome and IE11 (only shows well in Firefox)
3. PopUp CART displays very strange characters (see attached photo)

And of course, as it is always in a high demand, products export/import is really needed 'cause many of us having multiple sites.
