Membership and community plugins
Updated September 13, 2026
Membership, forum and newsletter plugins each get their own panel on Settings › Cloudflare Turnstile when they are active. Most are straightforward toggles, but several delegate their login or reset form to the WordPress settings rather than offering their own option, which is worth knowing before you go looking for a control that is not there.
Plugins that use the WordPress form settings
For these, enable the relevant form under Default WordPress Forms instead. The plugin’s own panel will show the option greyed out with a note explaining why:
- WP-Members — login and registration forms.
- WP User Manager — login, registration and password reset forms.
- MemberPress — the login form.
- Paid Memberships Pro — the login form. Its lost password form cannot currently be protected at all, and that option is disabled site-wide while PMP is active.
- WP User Frontend — login and reset password forms.
Plugins with their own options
Ultimate Member has separate toggles for its login, register and password reset forms.
MemberPress covers registration and checkout forms, with an optional list of membership IDs. Enter IDs one per line to restrict the challenge to those products — memberships not on the list load no widget and enforce no check.
Paid Memberships Pro protects its checkout and registration form, with a Guest Checkout Only option.
WP User Frontend adds registration and post forms on top of the delegated ones.
Easy Digital Downloads covers checkout, login and registration, with its own guest-only option. Sunshine Photo Cart covers login, register, reset and checkout.
Community plugins
bbPress has separate toggles for the create topic and reply forms, plus an Alignment setting and a Guest Users Only option so registered members are not challenged on every reply.
BuddyPress protects the registration form.
wpDiscuz works through the WordPress Comment option under Default WordPress Forms rather than a panel of its own.
Newsletters
MailPoet has a single switch that adds the widget above the submit button on every MailPoet form.
Mailchimp for WordPress has no global switch. Add [mc4wp-simple-turnstile] to each form in the MC4WP form editor.
Simple Membership and FluentAuth
Both are handled automatically rather than through a settings panel. Each suppresses the global WordPress login check while handling its own form, so the single-use token is not spent twice. Simple Membership also has specific handling so that a member logging in is logged into their WordPress user account as well.
