Why can’t regular “Admin” status work? All I need is for some people to approve/ban new members (spammers) and maybe patrol the forums/groups. […]

I did that with a test account to see what level of access a promoted user gets. When I logged into my network under this […]

My network is new but has attracted the attention of spammers. They haven’t caused trouble (yet) but I would like to prevent this by requiring any new applicant to join be held in a queue […]

However, the outgoing notification email of the move had garbage for the username and password. I sent out another email suggesting that people use the “Lost Password” function. However, that doesn’t work, I get the error message:

In the Dashboard I had to go to the Settings menu, in there was listed the “Mail From” plugin. The sender email was a nonexistent account, which was the problem. I changed it to an existing account. I just created a new user account in the website, and […]

Although it took a few hours for my activation email to arrive, it did. But, the sender email address wasn’t the admin email (the one listed as the one from which all activation/notification emails are sent from) it was an weird email from BlueHost. mybluehostusername @box###.bluehost.com. Should I take this up […]

I’m using WP ver 3.0 and BP ver 1.2.5.2. I have searched all over for the solution to the problem apparently addressed in this thread, but the suggested “Mail From” plugin doesn’t work.

I searched these forums for the solution, if any, saw this and tried to apply it. I do not see the option for “Tick the box next to ‘membership – anyone can register’.”

Where is it?
