ERROR: Anti-spam field was filled in.

On our reg form there is a hidden field called ’email_2′ which may have been populated. Have you tested this on other machines, or customised the form?

Hi,
I have no problem registering an account myself.

I’ve added required billing first name, last name, company, and phone number to the registration form on my-account page.

Also, my boss, he previously already created an account using his gmail. This time he tried to create another account with his work email (I mean [email protected]).

My client is suddenly having this problem, too. The forms have been customized.

Why does this issue appear once in a while? Because of security?

I wonder if browser auto-complete is filling the field in your case. That said I could not replicate auto-fill filling the hidden field on chrome. What browser does he use?

He used Firefox and Chrome, which is the same as what I used and I have no problem creating an account.

Hmm. Not sure what to suggest.

If you view source (logged out) and find that field, I assume it has no value?

Has he tried both being logged in and logged out?

How about turning off autocomplete in the browser temporarily.

I didn’t get a reply whether he tried turning off the autofill. Could this be a cache issue? Or Ubuntu computer issue?

I did the same registration on my computer for him. Everything worked fine.
Any idea why?
Could this be a temporary web hosting issue?
The top menu of the website disappeared for a few minutes in Chrome yesterday, but works fine in Firefox. The menu now works fine again.

I really cannot say.. if it occurs again, try the autofill solution.

ok, thanks

in the end it was auto refill that cause the problem , for once i though its the adblocker

How to prevent browser from auto-complete this field?

Issue: https://github.com/woocommerce/woocommerce/issues/11839

Solution: Copy myaccount/form-login.php to your theme’s woocommerce templates. Edit the file, add autocomplete=”off” replace:
<form method=”post” class=”login”>

with:
<form method=”post” class=”login” autocomplete=”off”>

For me the problem occurs when I try to register an account as a seller. The problem occurs if the password filled has been autocompleted. How can I disable autocomplete of the password field during registration?
