ParticipantSame problem here.
User registers, user gets email with an activation link, user clicks on the link and it leads to the activation page telling the user to enter a key.
Activation link looks like this: `http://domain.com/activate/?key=c30b42bea81091b523b0993c35f7ed8b`
I’ve also tried copying the key from the link and pasting it into the activation code input box but no dice.
Seems like a lot of people have this problem. There’s no solution? I have to use another plugin for this?

ParticipantI would start troubleshooting this from the ground up as follows:
1) set up an exact copy of your site in a development environment (and preferably on the same server)
2) deactivate all plugins
3) switch to the Default BuddyPress themeDoes the problem persist?
The goal with the above method is to eliminate possible culprits.

ParticipantThanks toby,
It did help previous users that was in limbo but how can i prevent this problem from happening? Every time a user sigh up, they are asked for the activation code and the email thats sent out after they sign up has the activation code but its not reading it.

ParticipantI am using it on that setup, and it works fine.

ParticipantThanks for the help, does this even work for wordpress 3.4.2 and buddypress 1.6.1?

ParticipantBuddyPress requires that users activate their accounts after registering. The activation link is sent via email to the registrant. It is likely that either your php mail configuration is messed up or that the email in question went into the user’s spam folder.
In any case, you can use this plugin to manage activations: https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/buddypress-pending-activations/

MemberExact same problem as @GordonRe, users successfully activate by following the emailed activation link, however this prompts them to enter a key even though their activation was successful.
From the activation template, the problem seems to be with:
“
This conditional must not be returning TRUE, otherwise the form would display the activation successful message. Not sure how best to approach this, but the autologin on successful activation plugin sounds like a potential alternative…

Participant@mercime, thank you for your response. We were getting ready to try your suggestion when this happened:
As you know, the registration emails going out from our site were working but then weren’t working. See previous email. Since then, we went into something we never before went into: Membership, Communications and created a test Welcome message. We registered as a new user and wouldn’t you know we received the registration activation email as that new user, the test Welcome message for the new user and the admin new user notification email. Then we deactivated the test Welcome message and went through the process again. It worked! We received two emails now (just like before the mysterious site-rendered email disappearance); the registration activation email as that new user and the admin new user notification email. We then completely deleted the test Welcome message so that the Membership, Communications was the same as before we started and again, we received the same two emails. Whatever did we reactivate?
So, for whatever reason, the emails seem to be working again. However, this is a huge concern to us. This could happen again and we would have no idea why the emails stopped working and why it suddenly reset itself. We have repeatedly read in our research of this matter that WordPress uses PHPMail Sendmail. It has been mentioned more than once that making the emails go SMTP is better and more stable. We are of the belief that this may be the core issue here. Can anyone give input on this and guide us in the right direction? Is there anyone out there that can explain to us what may have happened and is there something we need to hard code so that it doesn’t happen again?
Many thanks for your help and advice.

@mercime
Participant== ACTIVATE page and it now shows up in the PULL DOWN but does nothing? ==
This is the page where members land with auto-generated content for that specific member after they click on activation email code which is sent to theme after they register.
So on it’s own, just going to yoursite.com/activate/ you’re not expected to see anything at all on that page.

ParticipantI had switched my Hotmail.com email accounts to Outlook, switching back to Hotmail.com has resolved the problem.

ParticipantAlso, search through the forum for the activation email problem. It’s common and often times is related to your hosting provider or MX settings.

Participant@chiangmai – It could be because it’s not compatible with BP, I’m not familiar with that plugin but not all WP plugins are compatible with the BP registration process.
I’ve had success with Wanguard and asking a specific question. I’ve only had one spammer come through in the last month. I tried other CAPTCHA plugins before, and the CAPTCHA wouldn’t show in IE.

ParticipantI haven’t tried, was afraid to break something else. Now the request for an activation code is back right after I login following the link sent to the email. What’s causing this?

ModeratorYou are better off letting email go to user but remove the activation link. Create a function that hooks into member sign up to email you separately. I’m suggesting this because its better conversion for users to get the email.
`function email_admin_user_signup() {
//email admin code here
}
add_action(‘bp_core_signup_user’, ’email_admin_user_signup’);`October 20, 2012 at 2:48 pm #143740In reply to: Create private membership site with BuddyPress

Participant@djpaul: Yes, but I want to redirect the “activate your account” e-mails to the site admin instead of the user to let the admin know that a new user has registred. I’m trying to figure out the best way to do this. Obviously I don’t want to edit core files, so best practice should be to use a filter to replace the users e-mail address with the site admin e-mail address I guess?
I found an old post regarding this here (from 2010):
http://www.thoughtsofjs.com/moderate-new-user-registration-in-buddypress.html
They’re editing core files there (bad!), but I found this in the comments as a function to achieve the above:
`
function filter_replace_with_moderator_email($user_email) {
return get_site_option( “admin_email” );
}
add_filter(‘bp_core_activation_signup_user_notification_to’, ‘filter_replace_with_moderator_email’);
`I added this to my themes custom functions.php-file but the e-mail is still sent to the user instead of the admin. Is there a change in BP 1.5 so that I need to change the hook in the filter? Does anyone know?

ParticipantHas already deactivated BP Disable activation.
Tried both “mail from” and WP-Mail-SMTP, neither work now trying WP SMTP Config
Any ideas why CAPTCHA does not work on “register” page?

Participant@chiangmai let’s go back to the root of the problem and deactivate BP Disable Activation. Resolve email send/receive issue https://codex.buddypress.org/troubleshooting/frequently-asked-questions/

Participant@nealw Curious, does the same email activation issue come up if you change to BP Default theme and activate bbPress plugin?
