How Do I get rid of the activation code?

When a member signs up on my website, they first go and enter all the information on the registration page. After that, an activation email gets sent to them. That right there is what I want.

The problem that I have is that when someone clicks on the activation email, it brings them to a page on my website asking for an “activation code” even though their account is now activated. This is confusing some of my new members.

Any help?

Thanks

So, let me understand; they click on the link in the email, it activates their account, and… then what? Are they not redirected back somewhere else?

When clicking the link in their email, they are directed to

http://www.pokemonsocial.com/activate

That page asks for an activation key even though their account is already activated. It doesn’t mess up them making a profile or anything, it just confuses the person creating the account.

Look for the plugin buddypress-disable-activation, may be it will help you

I have the same issue! The plugin mentioned above works but I would rather get a confirmation via the email they provided!

I’m not sure why the activate page is still there as the email now has an automated link but I have figured a way to rectify this! Just install a wp redirection plugin and forward the activate page to whatever URL you would like! I also would recommend using the the login logout redirect plugin!

Just to clarify my last post. You would use two redirection plugins, they do not conflict each other!
