Can't Stop The Spam: Need advice on configuring plugins

  • I have the following plugins installed but considering the results I’m not sure I have some of them configure correctly.

    This is my domain and WP installation path.
    https://ecopsi.org/journal/

    I average between 55 to 100 bogus registrations per day that I have to manually sort through on the off chance that a real person is trying to subscribe and or register. It’s the same everyday with hundreds of almost the same names. I delete them and they almost immediately come back again.

    I feel like some warlord has laid siege to my castle. I’ve got a personal blog and I never get spam using the same plugins and configuration.

    Donated some cash and registered. It’s supposed to stop 99.99% of spam
    Akismet
    https://akismet.com/

    Then I installed this plugin which is supposed to stop 99.99% of spam.
    Anti-spam
    https://www.ads-software.com/plugins/anti-spam/

    Out of curiosity I installed this plugin.
    BuddyPress Members only
    https://tomas.zhu.bz/my-buddypress-plugin-buddypress-members-only.html/
    Didn’t even slow them down.

    I was just about to configure CloudFlare to see if that would help.

    Help please

    Is it possible to block any email from these two domains?
