    Hi There,

    Good day to you.

    I am facing a critical security issue on my website and need your immediate assistance. I am constantly receiving “Undelivered Mail Returned to Sender” notifications, which indicate that bots are mass-creating fake accounts on my site using invalid email addresses. I have attached a screenshot of my email inbox showing the volume of these bounced messages.

    Could you please confirm if this is a known issue and advise on the best way to secure my site against these bot attacks?

    To prevent this, I need to urgently implement Google reCAPTCHA on my login and registration forms. Specifically, I need to know how to enable reCAPTCHA in the following XStore theme sections:

    The Sidebar Login/Register Widget: https://snipboard.io/qAYOHD.jpg
    The “My Account” Page: https://snipboard.io/fQz9GI.jpg
    My Account Page Link: https://skysolmedia.com/my-account/

    Please guide us how to resolve these problems.

    Thank you.
