DGN Webs Spam User Cleaner scans your WordPress users and identifies likely spam registrations using a multi-signal scoring engine — no external API required for the core features.

Every email address is scored across multiple heuristic signals. Users scoring above your chosen minimum threshold appear in a reviewable list. You decide who to delete — nothing is removed without your confirmation.

Core Features (Free)

  • Multi-signal spam scoring — blacklisted domains, invalid email format, Gmail abuse patterns (starts with number, long digit sequences, excessive dots), bot-generated usernames (consecutive consonant clustering, unseparated long strings), random alphanumeric patterns, no vowels, very short usernames
  • Never-logged-in flag — optionally add +3 score to users who have never logged in
  • Minimum score threshold — slider from 1–20, users below the threshold are excluded from results
  • Excluded emails whitelist — protect known-good users from ever appearing in scan results
  • Batch scanning — processes 1,000 users per batch, works on sites with hundreds of thousands of users
  • Real-time progress bar — scan and deletion progress displayed live
  • Domain filter with Only / Except toggle — show or exclude a specific email domain
  • Reason filter chips — filter results by any combination of detection reasons
  • Score badges — colour-coded Low / Medium / High / Critical
  • Bulk selection — select current page or all results across all pages
  • Deletion with content reassignment — all content (posts, comments) is safely reassigned to an admin before deletion
  • Protected roles — Administrators and Editors can never appear in scan results or be deleted
  • CSV export — download the full result set

Privacy & External Connections

This plugin performs no external connections. MX record validation uses PHP’s built-in checkdnsrr function — a standard DNS query. No user data is sent to any third party.
