    @Jeff Sayre

    I’ve a new install hosted on H-Sphere. The site isn’t live yet but I have tried to install buddypress links but the problem persists after deactivating this. You’ve got me thinking though as I read something on a post about WPMU plugins with ‘-‘ in the name causing issues, maybe the .htaccess was modified. Can I copy and rename htaccess.dist?

    Cheers

    Is this a localhost development install or a remote, hosted install? If hosted, is it a live site that used to work but is now experiencing this issue?

    Have you modified the standard .htaccess file that WPMU automatically creates on new installs? This could be done manually or via some plugin that you’ve recently installed and activated.

    @MrMaz

    Unable to receive activation or lost password emails.

    Although WPMU now tells me everything is installed and working I’m not able to register using the buddypress frontend. I found a reference in a forum suggesting that any plugins with ‘-‘ in their name can cause the error I’m seeing.

    From my log:

    Request exceeded the limit of 10 internal redirects due to probable configuration error. Use ‘LimitInternalRecursion’ to increase the limit if necessary.

    I’m still getting this after deactivating buddypress-links though so may be more of a buddypress general support quesiton. Any ideas?

    you are most welcome :)

    Well,just go to your current theme and edit registration/register.php,remove the line saying “You have successfully created your account! To begin using this site you will need to activate your account via the email we have just sent to your address”.

    you will see it somewhere written under

    ‘<?php if ( ‘completed-confirmation’ == bp_get_current_signup_step() ) : ?>’

    Remove that.

    Better I just suggest to remove the avatar uploading step,as the account gets already activated and the uploaded avatar(the second screen of registration)(which earlier were used at the time of activation will not work)

    so,If you are using un modified default theme,you can remove the code from line 215(where the if starts) to 276,where the if ends safely.

    Please note,The avatar uploading step at registration will not work,so just remove that step.that’s it.

    Thanks

    I’m seeing this, too. I just tried a fresh install of WPMU (2.8.4a) and tested Dashboard > Users > Add User (worked fine, email arrived intact).

    After installing and enabling BuddyPress 1.1.1, doing the same thing to Add User results in a borked email:

    Hey Guys – the hook that used to work at activation was no longer doing the job. I have a new file available. Please send me a message with your email addy and I’ll send it for testing.

    Thanks!

    Previous to BP 1.1, all user registration was dealt with by WordPress, so it’s technically correct to point people towards existing WordPress/MU resources and forums for help.

    Since BP 1.1, however, BP changes the new account confirmation/activation email – because on the standard BP 1.1 signup page, the user can pick their own password. And of course, it’s a security issue if we were to somehow send their (encrypted) password back to them. So BP 1.1 overrides the standard WordPress MU email so it doesn’t include the password text.

    But, the activation link is part of WordPress. Yes, the BuddyPress default theme uses this behaviour too – but it calls the WordPress code.

    I’m still lost. I also don’t really have time to look at this until the weekend sometime. Could you help me again please?

    Yep, I go to the main blog via Users menu (not site admin>users) and…

    Could you give me a sample link (feel free to cut your domain off the beginning), i.e. http://example.com/how_to/get_to_this/page. I’m being a noob and can’t see it :(

    ...EXCEPT the email with username & randomly generated password that should replace that activation email shown above. (I'm thinking this is a wordpress email? Not sure.)

    Correct. Welcome Pack doesn’t (or shouldn’t) touch the activation email, which is why this issue is so weird-sounding.

    You ARE aware since BP 1.1, if a new user registers via http://testbp.org/register, they are able to pick their password and as such it isn’t emailed to them? (Though they still get a confirmation/account activation email)

    When I use the site admin>users method it doesn’t engage with Welcome Pack, which is the same thing that happened in my previous version of BuddyPress. The activation email gets killed there too, just tested that.

    Yep, I go to the main blog via Users menu (not site admin>users) and input the username and email address, select skip confirmation email, send. I get all of the notifications welcome pack sends out EXCEPT the email with username & randomly generated password that should replace that activation email shown above. (I’m thinking this is a wordpress email? Not sure.)

    The weird thing is when I do the same process from a sub-blog everything behaves the same except I DO get the email with the username & randomly generated password in addition.

    In case it helps here’s what happens over 3 tests from each main & sub blog dashboards:

    MAIN BLOG DASHBOARD:

    1. Broken activation email – came first all 3 times

    2. Then these 3 come, random order each time:

    Welcome pack welcome email

    Welcome pack friend invite email notification

    Welcome pack group invite email notification

    SUB BLOG NEW USER:

    1. Broken activation email

    2. Then these 4 come, random order each time:

    Account is setup email with username and randomly generated password

    Welcome pack welcome email

    Welcome pack friend invite email notification

    Welcome pack group invite email notification

    Thank you for working on this problem!

    BP1.1.1, Welcome Pack 1.41

    In case it helps, see the activation email that I get below, it gives up at the link. This message gets sent even though I had skip activation email selected, and no email stating username and password is sent.

    Hey DJ Paul

    I noticed that you added bp_core_account_activated hook which should work in most cases, but like I said (in my particular case) I skip over the activation via the buddypress fbconnect plugin. It inserts the user directly.

    Maybe there is a way for me to call that activation once the facebook user is authenticated? Do you know of a way to trigger that whole authorization process without actually making the user click on an email?

    That way it basicaly works like this

    1. User registers with Facebook conenct button

    2. Facebook sends back userinfo (via the api) – thats working currently

    (and here is where I am fuzzy)

    3. Take the fb information and trigger the account activation “automatically” …effectively bypassing the need for a “key”

    Or

    Is there another hook I can grab onto somewhere in the process beyond bp_core_account_activated that would work only on INITIAL Registration…but still after all globals are loaded (to ensure the messaging will work)

    Any ideas?

    Thanks again for the help!

    Wow thanks…I will try as soon as I get back to the local computer hosting my test dev. What seems to be happening (in short) is that becuase my users use facebook to login/register…it never goes through the “activation” email scenario….and becuase it registers a new user (and activates them) BEFORE those messages_global are set – the send message function fails.

    I tried reording the load_plugin order of the core and the message globals so that they would boot before, but once I did that it screwed up other things (like the order they need to be in to boot through the various functions in buddypress)..so I reverted, and have sense been trying to figure out how to maybe Trigger the “activation” silently in the registration process so that the email verification is not necissary.

    I will try the new plugin and report back

    I am also having problems with Welcome Pack. BP1.1 & BP1.1.1 same problem, WPMU2.8.4a. Fatal error on activation of the plugin, though it mostly works here’s what I get:

    Register a user as admin in dashboard, select “skip confirmation”. Sends out confirmation anyhow, and email dies at activation link. I do get all other welcome pack emails except:

    If sent from main WPMU blog don’t get the email that states username & pw

    If sent from sub blog do get the email that states username & pw

    Both tests have the same confirmation email that shouldn’t be sent that dies at activation link.

    THis is a WPMU thing. I believe this behaviour has changed in BP 1.1.1. I strongly suggest you upgrade your install regardless.

    Yes in wp_signups table you will find a key. Then go to:

    http://mydomain.com/activate?key=THEKEY

    Trying to use Manoj Kumar’s Buddypress Users Import plugin. I get this error:

    Fatal error: Maximum execution time of 30 seconds exceeded in /serverpath/wp-includes/class-phpass.php on line 60

    I don’t recognize anything in that line:

    function get_random_bytes($count)
    {
    $output = '';
    if (($fh = @fopen('/dev/urandom', 'rb'))) {
    $output = fread($fh, $count);
    fclose($fh);
    }

    Can I just temporarily delete it? Would that solve the problem? Other solutions?

    I’m trying to import 600+ members, so I’m not surprised it times out.

    EDIT: 490 members were actually imported quite nicely! :-)

    EDIT2: Not as nicely as I first thought… Username and full name didn’t make it over, only email addresses. Should I have added labels to the top line?

    EDIT3: There is no fast way to delete 490 users…?

    EDIT4: Does this plugin also update firstname + username in wp_usermeta. If not, I have to add it.

    This works:

    function synchro_mailinglist($user_id, $password, $meta) {
    global $bp, $wpdb;

    $email = $wpdb->get_var("SELECT user_email FROM $wpdb->users WHERE ID='$user_id'");

    $fullname = $meta[field_1];
    $space = strpos( $fullname, ' ' );

    $company = $meta[field_2];

    if ( false === $space ) {
    $firstname = $fullname;
    $lastname = '';
    } else {
    $firstname = substr( $fullname, 0, $space );
    $lastname = trim( substr( $fullname, $space, strlen($fullname) ) );
    }

    $firstname = nameize($firstname);
    $lastname = nameize($lastname);

    ...

    $wpdb->query("INSERT mailingusers SET users_id='$user_id', group_id='1', signup_date= UNIX_TIMESTAMP(), firstname= '$firstname', lastname= '$lastname', email_address = '$email' ");
    $wpdb->query("INSERT mailingcdata SET cdata_id=NULL, user_id='$user_id', cfield_id='1', value='$company'");

    }
    add_action( 'wpmu_activate_user', 'synchro_mailinglist', 10, 3);

    I used it as part of this function. This should work other mailinglist scripts as well, just change the table and field names.

    I don’t understand why $user_email didn’t work. I had to pull the user_email from the database. Is there a cleaner way?

    Even this doesn’t work:

    $email = $wpdb->query("SELECT user_email FROM $wpdb->signups WHERE activation_key = %s", $key);

    And this also does not work:

    $email = $wpdb->query("SELECT user_email FROM $wpdb->users WHERE ID = %s", $user_id);

    ?? :-(

    I’m now trying to add firstname, lastname and email address straight to the database tables of my mailing list. I’ve added the queries to the function I had put together here:

    function synchro_wp_usermeta($user_id, $password, $meta) {
    global $bp, $wpdb;

    ...

    $wpdb->query("INSERT mailingusers SET users_id='$user_id', group_id='1', signup_date= UNIX_TIMESTAMP(), firstname= '$firstname', lastname= '$lastname', email_address= '$user_email'");
    $wpdb->query("INSERT mailingcdata SET cdata_id=NULL, user_id='$user_id', cfield_id='1', value='$company'");

    }
    add_action( 'wpmu_activate_user', 'synchro_wp_usermeta', 10, 3);

    This mostly works, except the for the email address. $firstname, $lastname and $user_id are all correctly added to the table, but the email_address field stays empty.

    Can anyone spot the problem?

    How can I “call” the user’s email address upon ‘wpmu_activate_user’?

    Adding a $user_email argument only produces missing argument errors. I’m out of guesses…

    $current_user->user_email doesn’t work either:

    $wpdb->query("INSERT mailingusers SET users_id='$user_id', group_id='1', signup_date= UNIX_TIMESTAMP(), firstname= '$firstname', lastname= '$lastname', email_address= '$current_user->user_email'");

    Original posters:

    a) Yes, but please discuss this on https://buddypress.org/forums/topic/modified-mail-message-registration.

    b) Yes I believe so, but this is a WPMU question so you are best searching on the WPMU forums

    c) Yes, it’s in the theme files. You can edit these at the moment and it might be easier to do in BP 1.1/trunk.
