Looks to me like IE8 thinks jQuery library didn’t get included. Either that or it’s having a hard time seeing that “j” is jQuery. I’ll try to take a look at this soon.

Try by turn off your Java Script error in IE. To do that follow this link

User and avatar information is stored in wp_signups before the account is activated, and it is moved into the user, usermeta, and xprofile tables upon activation.

It would seem you’re experiencing a different issue than what you describe.

For now I’m closing this and linking it to…

Some month ago, I change my registration process, and become spam free.

Just sometimes, I had a spam registration, but thy never had a user role.

Also I never get a registration mail.

And they not able to create a blog, or even post.

But this morning I have a new user: brentschroeder1963

Also with registration mail, a new blog …..

Thanks Chouf

I just implemented the code above (just like it is, is that correct???) a couple minutes ago… Since then I already have to spam-registrations and blog-creations…

So, I will try the wp-ban also…

I have had the same issues as you all these summer.

Since approx. 2 mounth i have nomore fake user or fake blog. And no spam too !

I erased daily and manually all spammer reference in my DB. Mail adrress, blog content, names and so on… An endless job with no success at least. And i don’t use Askimet. I can’t explain why (or only in french), but i don’t.

I’ve installed wp-spamfree (who blocked 45 spam comments since i installed it in july), invisble-defender (who blocked 76 spammer in the same period) This is really less

I use also wp-ban, here i have given some ip ban’s instructions, banned some referrers like these:

http://*.onlq.com

http://*.myspacee.info

http://*.host-a-site.info

and some wildcarded user agents like zhanglingjuan*

in my htaccess i have this, wich is very powerfull(i think it is this who reduced mostly my spammers)

Test it and see in your log file how many “libwww-perl” call you receive in a day and see what is in the url. You will stunning !

# Blocking access from libwww-perl, and blocking urls that include “=http:” to eliminate bot attacks



RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} libwww [NC]

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ - [F,L]



RewriteCond %{HTTP_USER_AGENT} www-mechanize [NC]

RewriteRule ^(.*)$ - [F,L]



RewriteCond %{REQUEST_URI} !(wp\-login\.php|\/wp\-admin\/) [NC]

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^(.*)=http [NC]

# END ANTISPAMBLOG REGISTRATION

The register page can be renamed by changing the registration slug.

Add this line somewhere in your wp-config.php:

define( 'BP_REGISTER_SLUG', 'yourregisterslug' );

Change ‘yourregisterslug’ to whatever you want it to be.

There are two ways to do it, first you can go to facebook apps settings, and create a callback upon successful login, and on that callback page you ask the user his email. Or you may setup your account that facebook will ask user if your app is allowed to send him direct emails.

– first case, you need to store the email somewhere else on wp database, since user_email section will be occupied by fb provided proxy email. i don’t know if it breaks the fb-connect functionality if you overwrite that with user’s real email.

– second case, facebook_proxy+2342423+bla@facebook.com sort of email becomes a gateway to your user. you will see that email on user_email section on wp database, if you send an email however, before user approves through fb, it will bounce.

i haven’t implemented it, this is kind of my research before fb revised their api, so I apologize in advance if it’s not accurate.

i’m adding this to functions.php and it’s killing my bbpress integration (which calls wp-load.php in the header). i just get a white page.

/* Kill the wp-signup.php if custom registration signup templates are present */

function bp_core_wpsignup_redirect() {

if ( false === strpos( $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'], 'wp-signup.php') )

return false;



if ( locate_template( array( 'registration/register.php' ), false ) || locate_template( array( 'register.php' ), false ) )

wp_redirect( bp_root_domain() . BP_REGISTER_SLUG );

}

add_action( 'signup_header', 'bp_core_wpsignup_redirect' );

@Erich73 I created a Last_Name and First_Name field so that I could do directory stuff just like you said. The only thing we’re stuck with is the Display name field, which some find annoying and some actually like. Considering all the over the top registrations we have all done before, this isn’t the worst. Facebook has it figured out, using emails as usernames and First name and Last Name when appropriate because it is more conducive to engagement. That’s the most important thing: what gets your users to engage – seeing LadiesMan269 doing an action or John Smith?

I think you mean weddingwire.com

This is functionality I am looking for too.

No, you have to enable user registration in the administration panel.

By the way, make your posts clearer, I didn’t understand what you meant.

@profitsbuzz

1. Yes, the problem will be solved, unless offcourse you don’t have member registration on in the wpmu settings.

2. It could affect the wpmu plugins that use the wp-signup.php page, just try and if some plugins stop working or give a error, ask the developer if he can fix it.

hey

Sorry ,It is there but it is outside the code block(gray area),seems my keyboard played wrong with me ,so it is not showing in the gray code area.If you are copying the gray code only ,add an extra ‘} ‘ ,as suggested by nexia .Or if you copy upto oneline below the code block in my post ,that ‘}’ is included

Oh man I feel embarrassed!

Am I supposed to edit my_custom_url ? ^.^

there is a missing ” } ” that is not shown… add one at the end of the code to make it work

Using this method, you can actually modify lots of other links! Very helpful. Thanks Brajesh!

*edit: Quite not working yet. Gives me

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in /home/domain/public_html/wp-content/themes/bp-sn-parent/functions.php on line 81

Did I add this on a bad line or something?

hi,yes, you can.

Put this code in your current themes functions.php and it will make it work.

return $url;

}

Let me know it worked for you or not

It would be really good to see some sort of integrated video commenting – I believe that, for certain use cases, video commenting could be extremely useful but, so far, it has been hampered by clueless implementations (Seesmic, Viddler) which forced users to jump through registration hoops before they can actually record their message, killing the medium before it even had a chance to catch on.

As far as I can see, Kaltura does not currently offer any sort of video commenting but I think it would be a really could fit with the way in which you are trying to push the communal aspects of video.

Here’s what I’m trying to do…

I’d like to hook into bp_after_registration_submit_buttons to run a query that will update wp_signups in the database.

If that function does what i think it does, I would set ‘activated’ to the same as ‘registered’ and set ‘active’ to 1. I’m guessing there’s more involved, like copying the ‘meta’ to wp_usermeta, and also adding their details to wp_users.

Now here’s the tricky bit: how do I hook into bp_after_registration_submit_buttons?

And, how do I get _any_ identifying value for the user who’s just registered?

Tested in different contain variation with turn-half-on supercache and turn off, site wide activity RSS is completely lost control while supercache is on.

Post new blog post: work fine

Post new forum topic/reply: random hours delay

New user registration: disappeared

When turn off supercahce, everything back to normal, i tried to exclude is_feed and several feed, /feed/, /activity/feed/ but no effect at all.

I’m using BP1.1.2 and 2.8.5.2 mu and supercache 0.9.7
