BuddyPress.org

I’m bit amazed by this

enabled direct registration of new members and disabled email confirmation

As far as I know, a user registering from the front-end (managed by BuddyPress) is first receiving an email containing a secret key he needs to paste into the BuddyPress activate page to validate their account. But maybe you are using a plugin or some custom code to disable this..

Otherwise, you can achieve what you describe adding the following code snippets to a bp-custom.php file.

/**
 * Adds activities generated when a user activates their account when a user
 * is created using the wp-admin/user-new screen Add new action.
 */
function automatically_generate_an_activation_activity( $user_id = 0 ) {
	// Adds a "became a registered user" activity.
	bp_core_new_user_activity( $user_id );

	// Fake a user log in.
	bp_update_user_last_activity( $user_id );
}
add_action( 'edit_user_created_user', 'automatically_generate_an_activation_activity' );

Hi, I’m getting the same database error and it seems linked to Mycred, as Neo also flagged above.

Here is the full error:

[15-Jun-2021 13:35:49 UTC] PHP Notice: Undefined property: BP_Members_Component::$table_name_invitations in /home/customer/www/staging57.kidwise.in/public_html/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-core/classes/class-bp-invitation-manager.php on line 53

Any suggestions how to fix this, please?

thanks very much,

Hi, I noticed that there is a compatiblilty issue with 8.0 and MyCred. I raised the issue with them, but just would like to highlight it here also.

The issue is that they are using the bp_core_signup_send_activation_key filter with one paramater.

In BP 8.0, this conflicts with add_filter( 'bp_core_signup_send_activation_key', 'bp_members_invitations_cancel_activation_email') which has 5 paramaters.

This results in the following error:
Fatal error: Uncaught ArgumentCountError: Too few arguments to function bp_members_invitations_cancel_activation_email(), 1 passed in /var/www/html/wp-includes/class-wp-hook.php on line 292 and exactly 5 expected

I just wanted to highlight the issue here as well, even though I think the issue is that they are not using the filter correctly

Hi
I have the same problem
My site https://buddiesbuzz.com
many users not getting activation emails and some users get the wrong activation code.

Hoe to solve this problem.
I am using youzer plugin

I have the same problem. No email is triggered when a new user registers. Any idea what to do? This pretty much will ruin any chances of getting sign ups.

I’ve integrated a mailer (eg. Sendgrid) and other emails are going out ok such as comment notifications. But no activation email for a user who wants to sign up.

Any help appreciated!

Yes, this is a much desired application in BuddyPress. We have this application in our theme, the users are registered and activated simultaneously. In case you are interested, link.
We’ve even extended this Buddypress function into registering with a user with custom role or member type, registering in groups, sending custom activation email and on activation sending custom welcome emails all controlled at the point of registration itself.
