Email issue Hi, {{recipient name}}

Hi,
I need to remove the {{recipient name}} from the activation email that is sent out. Because the user does not yet have an account, it does not show their name. It only shows Hi, {{recipient name}}; which looks really unprofessional. I found the code in the bp-core file, but I am a novice and not quite sure what I need to remove or what filter to add or where. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Helo!

I am also new to programming and spent a lot of time trying to find where I could translate this text.
But after I understood, I found it very easy (but really easy!).
You simply enter buddypress/bp-core/bp-core-template.php

Find the word salutation, or go to the end of the content.
This text is linked to the bp_email_get_salutation function

Just replace the lines:
```
_x( 'Hi,', 'Unnamed recipient salutation', 'buddypress' )
_x( 'Hi %s,', 'Named recipient salutation', 'buddypress' )
```
by the words that your language.

I think by the time of your post I won’t be able to help you, but I hope I can help other people with the same difficulty we had.

Greetings!
