I go to a user profiles page and it says “User marked as spammer and only viewable to admins” or something like that, the user isn’t a spammer, how do I unmark them as a spammer?

Thanks.

In your WP dashboard, go to “Users” and check the box next to the name of the user highlighted in red. Then, select “Not Spam” from the “Bulk Actions” dropdown (top or bottom of your user list). Click “Apply”. Should do it.

It’s so wierd the user isn’t highlighted in red and “Not Spam” isn’t an even an option,

The only options I have are “Bulk Actions” and “Delete”

This is WordPress 3.1 Not WordPress MU.

Looks like they didn’t activate their account, I used the plugin WP Activate to manually activate the account for them.

Ah right… I think that “Bulk Action” only becomes available in WP3 if you have enabled Multisite. And not too sure if WP-Activate is compatible with Buddypress. Here’s an auto-activate plugin that is compatible with WP3 single:

It’s a premium plugin, but the small fee is well worth all the cool stuff @Brajesh puts out almost weekly. He’s also a great help if you ever get yourself into a coding kaffuffle.

You can also test the plugin here:

@jordashtalon did it work for you?

[@roxanner Member 14 years, 7 months ago]

Thank you so much for this post. I used the WP Activate Users plug-in and problem solved!
