ParticipantThanks. It’s probably the Membership plugin. Which isn’t possible to keep deactivated. But there’s a way around all of it, so that’s good.
Any other advice from others?

InactiveMore than likely it is a plugin. Try disabling each plugin one by one and keep registering and trying the activation until you narrow it down to the culprit. I had the same issue once and the culprit was the “Disable WordPress Updates 1.2 plugin.”

Memberokay… so last thing I checked in the General Settings was that I still had the “www” in the path. So I removed it and now ALL HAIL THE KING… I get an activation email!

Memberstupid thought… but possible the issues are because this is installed and running from a sub-directory??? Not the main route public_HTML

Memberokay deactivated every plugin except BuddyPress. Am using BP-Mag theme built for BuddyPress…
no activation email still! I am screwed!
February 29, 2012 at 12:36 am #130627In reply to: Buddypress Activation Email
MemberI am having the same issue. WordPress 3.3.1 and BuddyPress 1.5.4
Added the custom code from above to the functions.php – did not help. Cannot get the activation email to get sent and I have tried 15 different REAL email accounts including comcast.net, verizon.net and yahoo.net.
After Registration… it lands me on the Registration Complete message… tells me an activation email is waiting for me. But also have the Gravatar Upload available. If I try to upload anything, it just bumps me out, because I have NOT activated yet.
I am STUMPED! I will try deactivating ALL plugins but I am down to the bare bones now.
Someone please help… I am weeks over due and I thought I was just about ready to launch… now this!
Thanks!

Memberanother great question, thanks for the support btw. Ah where do people log in? I didnt see a widget, and whats the purpose of an activation page if the email link directs you to successful activation? Thanks

ParticipantYes the https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/mail-from/ plugin changes the from mail with a user or a specified email as aces said above.
Seems my issue was I installed a Private Community plugin did not even activate it and it created a problem with buddypress sending out the email
As soon as I removed the plugin the issue was resolved. I need only add my categories, social login and bingo we are up and running.
Love WordPress

MemberActually I think this could also be related to a bug in the way BP handles breaking down the domain to build the from email address.
for instance my WP URL does not include the WWW.
and I have tried fresh installs on servers where the SMTP is known to be set up correctly and activation emails stop working once BP is installed, no other plugins installed either.In order to get my emails from buddypress to work (including the activation email) I had to add this to my functions.php to explicitly set my “from” address.
`
//Fix Email issue
function fix_bp_core_email_from_address_filter() {
return apply_filters( ‘bp_core_email_from_address_filter’, ‘noreply@yoururl.com’);
}
add_filter( ‘wp_mail_from’, ‘fix_bp_core_email_from_address_filter’ );`be sure to change “yoururl.com” with your actual URL.
This has been working for me, so far.

ParticipantSometimes the email gets stuck in spam or junk filters.
To get email working, some web hosts require an extra wordpress plugin, such as:
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/mail-from/
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-mail-smtp/
https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/configure-smtp/
wp-mail-smtp and configure-smtp can send a test email which often provides useful debug information!
This is a frequently discussed issue here and people have found all three different plugins useful – there may be others.
Please check your host’s knowledge base or faq for further information….

MemberAnother detail I realised, on wp-signups table, I found my 2 tests, with activation key and all. I got the info from the site holder, that ppl arent able to register since september, 2011.
On the wp-signup, I see 767 entries for new user, none of them activated, all of them have suspicious email accounts and the dates started mid september.

MemberI was trying to use configure-smtp but it was generating error codes, so it was not working either way.
I hadn’t found that post, but it would probably would have done the trick.
As noted below, I now have it working with configure-smtp, but, is there a reason you like WP Mail SMTP over configure-smpt?
Many thanks,
Rory
Solved.
I needed to use the Configure SMTP plugin, but leave the default SMPT host at “local host”.
I needed to spend more time searching the error codes I was getting. That google search lead me to a post at http://premium.wpmudev.org/forums/topic/installing-mu-plugins

Solved now – The hosting company told me to swap outgoing mail server from “host111.hostmonster.com” to “localhost’ and now seems to be working.
Thanks tremendously for all your help @Ulrich and others….It’s not easy being green.

February 13, 2012 at 1:56 pm #129716ParticipantIf you are using configure-smtp then, from what I can see, it will be sending via smtp not php.
Have you tried using WP Mail SMTP? It can send via php…
The last post on https://buddypress.org/community/groups/how-to-and-troubleshooting/forum/topic/register-confirmationactivation-email-is-not-sent-out/ might be useful (If you hadn’t already found it)…
February 13, 2012 at 4:10 am #129694MemberSort of, maybe. It tells me somewhere out there at bluehost php sendmail is waiting for instructions.
I already did my very best to uninstall WP (using simplescripts), delete the WP DB and DB users, and delete any other traces I could find using ftp. When I re-installed, I could register a new user to the WP installation and generate a successful activation email (which looked just like the ones they are talking about in your forum link). Then I installed BP, went through the same registration process, same address, same result in the WP BP users lists, but no email is sent.
Something is not landing in the right place or getting updated correctly when BP is installed. Still flummoxed.
Thank you though.

MemberAces,
I tried the Mail From plugin. That did not work.
I did finally have success (thanks to your post links and some tests).
Here is what worked:
1. Created a brand new email address at my host called noreply@mydomainname.com.
2. Installed the WP Mail SMTP plugin.
3. Entered the new noreply email account info into WP Mail SMTP and used it as the SMTP for the site outgoing mail.Then I tested it. I entered a new test member. I received the Confirmation / Activation Email. I clicked and was activated.
It’s not perfect, but it works.
Thank you for your persistent help.

February 8, 2012 at 10:00 pm #129499ParticipantThe last post on https://buddypress.org/community/groups/creating-extending/forum/topic/sign-up-email/ has another suggestion, using https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/mail-from/
February 8, 2012 at 8:52 pm #129491MemberRockter,
Good idea. I did look in junk folders. Still no email.
I am convinced it is not being sent out of BP/WP registration.
Other ideas?
Thanks.

Membercheck your junk folder
February 8, 2012 at 7:14 pm #129483MemberAces,
Good idea. Cool pluggin. I was looking for a SMTP pluggin, but some how missed this one.
I was able to install WP-Mail-SMTP.
I sent a “test” message from inside WP-Mail-SMTP and it went through.
However, when I tried to sign up / register a test member, NO Confirmation / Activation email was sent
I removed and re-installed BP, but still same problem.
Any other ideas?
Thanks.
-Mike
February 8, 2012 at 5:35 pm #129478ParticipantHave you tried installing https://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wp-mail-smtp/ then sending a test email from the settings page?
The debug information should indicate where the problem is and the error codes can be googled for further info if necessary….
