This one worked like a champ…with my smtp settings in place

Try the Mail From Plugin, https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/mail-from/

This is “not” the case, I was running a complete wp 3.1 site, activation emails worked like a champ, and even saw send activation emails in the settings, now with BP that seems to have been ommitted, and the activation emails fail…. seems like we got some buck passing here….

Hello There, so im new to BuddyPress…Trying to set up a site and what i am finding is with this S2member/Buddypress Collaboration. Basically when i go on my site which i have set up and try to register as a general “subscriber or something it tells me an activation email has been sent but i never actually receive one.

I have tried on multiple accounts but i am having no luck whatsoever. Any ideas?

Thanks

hi,

I have the same situation that activation emails are not sending in my installation as well. Did you solved that problem? If you could help me please…
how to solve it?

In my system forgot password mails are working….

I don’t know whats the problem in activation mail…
Please help me…

Thanks in advance

I’m using this plugin: https://buddypress.org/community/groups/bp-disable-activation/. It’s free!

Do I need to have the network and super admin with buddy press. I didn’t because I don’t want individual blogs. Is there another way to deactivate blogs? And above the mention something called thesis. What is that? I have a test site and everything seems to be working great. And but it is network activated. My production site has everything installed correctly except the network is not activated. But this production site doesn’t send a activation emails. If I had network activated, how do I deactivate blogs? I also wonder about having group pages. Something that can explain the group in the march larger page. And then have all the other group pages be subordinate.

Every time I deactivate BuddyPress plug in e-mail start getting sent again for new users and a new blog sites from multisite. When I activate and BuddyPress plug in again they don’t get sand. It must be something with buddy press plug in.
What is BuddyPress doing to emails to send them now and differently.

I need this solution too. activation email is not going to users.

OK, I get why you might want BP_ENABLE_MULTIBLOG now. My bad.

I just did a test on a local installation and registration on subsites seemed to work fine – no redirects. Maybe I’m missing something? Here’s what I did:
1) enabled BP_ENABLE_MULTIBLOG in wp-config.php
2) created a secondary blog and enabled bp-default on that blog
3) Visited the secondary blog as a non-logged-in user
4) Clicked on “create an account” just above the login box (example.com/subsite/register)
5) The registration page loaded correctly – no redirect to the main blog. I filled out the registration info and submitted
6) Got an activation email and successfully activated my account

Is it possible that this is a theme issue? Do the BP themes that you are using for the portals have the necessary registration templates? (registration/activate.php and registration/register.php)

It’s nothing to do with BuddyPress or WordPress. It’s probably more likely due to throttling of emails sent on your godaddy account. I’d start by getting in contact with godaddy support and asking them what the situation is.

No, I would not recommend going to an earlier version of WP, the last few are critical security updates.

With the mail plugin, it should work. I am not saying it will pop up immediately, it might take a few minutes, but it should be there sometime.

Buddypress, as mentioned many, many, many times, is wired through the wordpress emails.

Buddypress has absolutely nothing to do with the emails. So don’t blame it on BP, there is nothing bp can do for the activation email really.

As through searching on forums, this issue is rising problems after problem. Bluehost seems to be big with it, so try the “Mail From” plugin.

Did you try the mail-from plugin or all the other solutions to the activation email not sent threads in the forum?

Check your error logs.
Check the files on the server.

When stuff suddenly stops working with no changes on your end, it is almost entirely something on the server side. Hosts DO run updates to the software on the server and sometimes settings get reset.

I am having the same problem but I don’t have BP Disable Activation installed. When a User signs up none of there information is being stored in the database but it still sends the activation email. When you click on the link in the email you get an error saying that activation failed.

The strange thing it this was working until the 9th of Jan, then it just stopped. Nothing has been changed on the site and I have been driving myself crazy trying to find out why it has stopped working, does anyone have any ideas of things I could try?

thanks

@sevenos … Is the system not sending? or are people not receiving? I had to put a warning message in the registration form to remind folks to check their junk/spam folders because 99% of all “missing” activation emails go there.

hi Avi M,

I am having the same problem. Also with Bluehost and initially I had a problem with activation e-mails. Nothing was sent and the new user could not activate the account as there were no e-mail of notification. Then I was advised to set up an e-mail account with them and still the problem persisted. After that I had install the Configure SMTP plugin which solved the activation e-mail problem only. Still there are no e-mails/notifications being sent sitewide. Can not figure out what I should do.
Can you tell me if you installed any additional plugin for this at all? How did you set up an e-mail address from Bluehost. Before I set an e-mail address and started using the Configure SMTP plugin, the general @box…bluhost.com e-mail was used which apparently was the default address.

Please share with us what you have done with bluehost.
thanks in advance.
