BuddyPress.org

Well, I kept searching and found the solution to my problem. Check out this post on StackExchange:
http://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/15304/how-to-change-the-default-registration-email-plugin-and-or-non-plugin

It worked like a charm for me.

I have used Henry’s method to customize the activation link email, but now I want to tweak the registration email. That’s the email that goes out after the user clicks on the link. How can I filter that?

Hi,

I’m the author of the Favicon by RealFaviconGenerator plugin.

Just to follow up: the plugin v1.2.10 fixes the issue.

The issue can caused by a early call to is_super_admin. This function was called to decide if some action registrations were necessary or not. The fix was to move all these to a function called upon the init action. No more warning!

John, would you confirm you don’t have the warning anymore?

@jkpi56 have you enabled registration at Settings > General? Are registration and activation pages assigned to Pages in Settings > BuddyPress > Pages?

Register and Activation Pages

This might help http://buddydev.com/plugins/bp-ajax-registration/

See this : https://buddypress.org/support/topic/registration-not-working-7/

Hope this will help.

Thanks
Suraj.

Might also look into – https://wordpress.org/plugins/unconfirmed/

I have used that to resend activations, the plugin description says it can “deleting their pending registrations,” – but not sure if that means is removes them from the database or whatever.. I have not tried using it in that manner. This plugin might also limit the amount of users you can mess with to 20 or 40 at a time – so it may be too tedious to do what you need anyhow. Haven’t played with it a while, and not sure if it’s been updated to add new functions since I used.

Others finding this thread may benefit from that plugin, or not – just a thought.

@tatakatte
Did you make sure you set your registration page as a static page in dashboard/settings/reading because I just tested it and it works as expected. On my dev environment when I go to the site without being logged in it redirects me to the registration page. Once I log in it redirects to the activity stream. Isn’t that what you wanted?

@henrywright
I didn’t use any priority and it worked so I don’t think that is the issue. Your code worked fine when I tested it as is.

Go to wp-admin/network/admin.php?page=bp-page-settings
Find:
Registration
Associate WordPress Pages with the following BuddyPress Registration pages.

Now create a New Page and save it with the name – register
and then choose it from the drop-down and save settings.

Hi I’m having the same issue.

Registration page is there, but can’t get the registration fields to show up and when I click on register on the top WP toolbar I keep getting

The resource you are looking for has been removed, had its name changed, or is temporarily unavailable.

@ndh01

It doesn’t work for me, perhaps because I’m using gravity forms for user registration.

That could be why. There’s no reason @shanebp’s solution won’t work on a default BuddyPress install

How exactly you get the first and last name variables depends on the context in which you’re using the link. It’s important to state, the variables aren’t always available.

Some examples, when the user clicks submit, you could access the first name and last name server side via $_POST variables. $_POST['field_1'] for first name and $_POST['field_15'] for last name (according to your registration form markup). Alternatively, after the information has been saved to the database, you’ll be able to access the member’s first and last name via functions made available by BP such as bp_core_get_user_displayname()

Hope this helps

Just looked over the code you’ve posted. That doesn’t really help. That’s just the code to display the registration form for the user to complete when signing up.

Your registration page code which you linked to.

Hi @ndh01

I’m not aware of a hook that fires on first login only. A way around that might be to add a meta key to the user’s meta on registration and then check for that on each login attempt. You’d need to remove the key after you’ve performed the check (if the key exists). If no key exists, then the user has logged in before. Just thinking out loud here… 🙂

Activation and registration are WordPress dependant and are not only “BP components”. These pages may not be created automatically, depending your WP settings… But according to the error message, you have now to create them.

I understand that you are a bit confused, as you’re in a discovery phase of BuddyPress.
But you should also understand that i can’t explain step by step the whole Codex (WP & BP!).

I guess you have to read the doc very attentively. Searching the forum or simply reading some topics will also help you to understand how all this is working.

Install first correctly WP and BP and use one of the Twenty theme, the time for you to learn a bit more. Once you’re comfortable with WP & BP, start your theme development.
