WordPress Restrict Email Domains 1.2.3

WordPress Restrict Email Domains is a CMS plugin that helps you control who can create accounts on your site by blocking or allowing specific email domains. Instead of relying on manual review, it applies clear domain rules during the signup process to keep registrations aligned with your community or organization goals. It’s useful when you want cleaner user credentials, fewer throwaway signups, and a more secure onboarding flow. With straightforward configuration inside WordPress, admins can manage domain access without changing their theme or template setup.
