Plone Captcha didn't work for preventing robot registration - plone

Recently the robot registration overwhelms my website, so I add Plone Captcha using these instructions to the join_form, but it did not work at all !!
The website still gets spammed with the robot registration for several hundreds of new members every day.
Is there any other way to prevent robot registration?

WP Job Manager Application

I have installed a plugin called "WP Job Manager Application"- you can see it here: https://wpjobmanager.com/add-ons/applications/
This is the way the plugin is working: when a candidate is submittig an application, it gets displayed straight in the companys dashboard (every company who offers a job, has his own dashboard on the site). The application gets displayed also in the WP-backend. I need a solution, that a application first has to be accepted (by the administrator) before it gets displayed in the company dashboard. Because we verify each application for the clients and only good candidates-applications get acccepted.
Do you have an idea for a solution?
You can find in Job Listing Setting that option.

Wordpress admin page with progress bar

I'm developing a Wordpress plugin to do a migration of data from a custom CMS.
Since the migration itself follows several steps and would take a while before being completed, I would like to have an admin page that would show the progress of backend script while it's importing the data.
I have read some articles online about such a communication between the backend and the client but there's nothing about the situation in which client and backend are inside the Wordpress framework (there are some constrains about setting the client properly).
Thank you,
Luca
In order to display the progress of a PHP process live, you will have to have the PHP script that is running update the state of a post that can be read from JavaScript such Angular over fixed intervals.
I would have the PHP create a post and store the process state using JSON, and have Angular using post and interval update the admin view.

Querying (Wordpress) MySQL Database using asp.net OR sending data from wordpress to asp.net

I'm working on a Press Release website that currently has an existing distribution platform built on ASP.NET - the site that I have built is utilizes Wordpress Multi-site and BuddyPress, and I need to share information between Wordpress & the existing ASP.NET CMS.
The information that needs to be shared between both platforms is 1) Press release information (which is a custom post type in Wordpress) and 2) The login information.
Is there a way to have ASP.NET get the information from the Wordpress MYSQL database? Or is the best way to write a plugin for wordpress that will send information to the ASP.NET each time a new press release is written, and each time a new user account is created.
I can go either way - having ASP.NET grab the info, or Wordpress send the info out. Please help!
Check out the WordPress XML-RPC API documentation to see e.g. how to create, read, update & delete posts.

How do I make Wordpress and an ASP.NET MVC 2webapp appear as one app to the end user?

I want to use Wordpress as a CMS for our domains content pages, and also provide links to and from CMS and our service which is an asp.net MVC 2 app, and I would really appreciate some guidance on this subject:
The first approach that comes to my mind is to bind my wordpress site to "thedomain.com" and then bind the service to "service.thedomain.com", and just have them point to the different websites in IIS. In my opinion it does not provide a seamless experience since we are effectively moving from one domain to another when navigating between MVC and wordpress.
How would you solve the task of making a wordpress app and an MVC app appear to be one?
A co-worker came up with an interesting solution to a similar issue and to solve it he wrote a theme in WP that shows all front-end results in JSON. Then, he used ajax/js to pull in content by sending a link to the WP server and pulling back in the JSON-formatted results. I have been meaning write up a blog post about it but the concept should get you started.
Basically, a main-server-page loads all the HTML then hits the wp-server and pulls in the necessary content. The main issue with doing it this way was the page would be empty if the user disabled JS or something else went wrong, but we never had that issue on a lightly-used server.

Drupal Facebook connect functionality

I have tried to implement Drupal connect with facebook functionality via fbconnect module. I have installed and set up the plugin. When I click on the facebook button the new popup window is opened and it requires my facebook credentials. After I enter those, instead of just simply logging in to my site, drupal asks of me to create a new account for drupal.
Is there any way to just connect with my facebook account without creating a new one on the drupal site.
Regardz,

RPX works the same way.
I believe you would have to modify the code to grab the returned data from Facebook and simulate a user creation with user_save, then automatically log them in, bypassing the Drupal login. Drupal needs a way of tracking that user on the site which is why that occurs.
I don't think the modules are quite there yet, though. Thanks for pointing that out, because I will have to come up with something like this.
