BuddyPress.org

I receive the activation email, with a url. Works fine….sometimes. The other times, that it doesnt work, Im asked to enter my activation key. But no activation key is found.

What gives?

Ive seen a few posts about this. But I really couldnt find an answer.

Hi, i think there is no need for this because when you receive a message, it already says from [Sitename] so no need to repeat [site name] again in message subject. i have already removed it from Account Activation email. but i think removing it from all the messages will be ok.

here is the code i use to remove the one for account activation email:

`function fix_bp_activation_subject($subject) {
return __( “Activate Your Account”, ‘buddypress’ );
}
add_filter(‘bp_core_activation_signup_user_notification_subject’, ‘fix_bp_activation_subject’);`

Is there a way to disable email notifications when user get a message ect. I need to disable them all but keep the activation email. I posted this topic a while ago but no one replied.

What do I do with it? Do I create a file or do I add it to an existing file. If I create a new file what type do I create and where do I put it? If it matters I use FTP to access my database. Please provide as much detail as possible.

Thanks in advance

Hi guys,

I created a separate thread earlier regarding the failure of my activation emails to hit Hotmail inboxes. They seem to hit junk all the time and it’s killing my sign ups.

I have set Domain Keys, SPF and RDNS and I can see these in the email headers when I manually send emails from my domain’s cpanel.

However emails generated through PHP such as the activation emails aren’t showing domain keys or SPF in their headers. To be honest though in BOTh scenarios, both with and without these in the headers the emails are still going straight to junk which is frustrating but I was just wondering if I should be seeing the domain keys/ SPF in the php generated emails too?

It would appear that DKIM is important these days and it’s frustrating that CPanel don’t support this yet until version 11.32 which is still weeks off i think.

Do other people experience issues with activation emails and have you managed to sort it out?

It’s tempting to see if there are any alternatoves to CPanel that I can use with BP and assign DKIM already?

One other alternative would be to install Deactivate BP disable activation. I have BP humanity installed which requires registrants to type in the answer to a security question but is that enough to stop spammers if I disable activation?

Wordpress 3.1.3
Latest BP install
WP Simple Community BuddyPress Theme
Thank you guys for all the help thus far all of my issues have pretty much been resolved but this registration problem is a huge headache.
When people create an account everything goes fine and it goes to the page that says an activation email will be sent but it never is. The registered user does show up in the admin panel under users but their registration is not active.
I have tried changing themes, uninstalling and reinstalling both BP and WP. I have deactivated every plug in and tried every compatible SMTP plug in. The SMTP plug in creates an error that says the SMTP server is not responding when a test email is sent. So far nothing has worked.
Does anyone have another solution to try or has anyone using the same installs had any success and can share how to fix it?
Is it possible to deactivate the themes log in and registration and use a plug in instead? I tried to do this but didn’t really know what I was doing.
If it helps my site is verbradio.com

As always your help is appreciated.

I’m trying to weed out all the kinks in my site so I can start promoting it (verbradio.com). There are still some areas that puzzle me and I hope you can help.
Groups and Forums:
I don’t see a way to delete them OR to post topics to them. HELP! The only options I have are to create a group or forum and then post updates to the activity feed.
Registration:
No activation email goes out. People who register do not show up as members on the site BUT are showing up in the admin area under users. When they try to go to the site and create another account it won’t allow it and I can’t activate them in admin. HELP!
Using latest BP and WP 3.1.3

Hi guys, this is a weird one that I don’t understand but I am sure is easily fixed.

I have noticed in the activation email that gets sent out from my site that where there is an apostrophe in the site’s title – Actors’ Network that the apostrophe actually gets replaced by the html code – [Actors & #039; Network] Activate Your Account

THIS ONLY HAPPENS IN THE ACTIVATION EMAIL – but I think it is causing some of these to go to junk folders as thetitle gets screwed up.

In all other emails, such as password reset etc, I don’t see this happening.

Could anyone tell me the cause of it, or is there a way I can manually change the subject line of the activation email?

Would love some help with this!
