    Further to the above post – here is some more info on my BuddyPress setup

    Directories – Associate a WordPress Page with each BuddyPress component directory.
    =======================================================================
    Activity Streams = Activity (page shows on menu = ok)
    Discussion Forums = None (but page shows on menu = ok)
    Members = Members (page shows on menu = ok)
    Portfolio = None (no page shows on menu = ??)
    Register = Register (no page shows on menu, but there is a right side bar with block for members to input their details and click on submit for membership, this block works, and opens a page informing the person to expect an email to confirm their membership – but no email is ever received…)
    Activate = Activate (no page shows on menu = ??)

    I’ve found this plugin, installed it, and tried to register. Now the page that says an email will be sent no longer shows. Nor does it send an email.

    Plugin = Mail From = Version 1.0.1

    A WordPress plugin that allows you to change the default wordpress@example.com email address that WordPress sends it’s email from, and the name of the sender.

    So removing this plugin….. :-(

    I now also need to remove the email addresses of the people who have tried to register and did not get a confirmation email – so that they can register again when the thing is working! How do I do this? I can’t seem any admin facility to check on who has tried to register.

    Please help – this is now becoming a nightmare. I have two govenment bodies now sending people to the site.

    I’ve found a fix!

    Version: 3.1 Configure SMTP mailing in WordPress, including support for sending e-mail via SSL/TLS (such as GMail).
    Have downloaded, activated and set up the smpt setting – while talking to my web site host company. Mail was sent – copy to me and to the ‘new user’. Works perfectly now.

    I’ve also deleted the other users who tried to register.
