BuddyPress.org

only broken with that custom code, which I found in another post and worked for their theme/bp/wp setup. To try @danbp’s suggestions, I’ll need to find examples where more code is provided.

It’s a staging site that doesn’t have public access, but I can put the code and info in here. Here is the complete code of the functions.php in the child theme. maybe I just put it all together wrong.

<?php
function nisarg_enqueue_styles() {

    $parent_style = 'nisarg-style';

    wp_enqueue_style( 'bootstrap', get_template_directory_uri().'/css/bootstrap.css' );
    wp_enqueue_style( 'font-awesome', get_template_directory_uri().'/font-awesome/css/font-awesome.min.css' );   
    wp_enqueue_style( $parent_style, get_template_directory_uri() . '/style.css' );

    wp_enqueue_style( 'nisarg-child-style',
        get_stylesheet_directory_uri() . '/style.css',
        array( $parent_style )
    );
}
add_action( 'wp_enqueue_scripts', 'nisarg_enqueue_styles' );
?>
<?php
function custom_wp_mail_from( $email ) {
        $handle = ‘accounts’;
	$find = 'http://'; 
	$replace = '';
	$link = get_bloginfo( 'url' );
	$domain = str_replace( $find, $replace, $link );
	return $handle . '@' . $domain ;
}
add_filter( 'wp_mail_from', 'custom_wp_mail_from' );
?>

The email link is:http://mydomain.com/activate/JA0BvkK1Q0DND10SYegdOtkTMemhGUF0/

When I click on it immediately, I get all this:

Fatal error: Uncaught exception ‘phpmailerException’ with message ‘Invalid address: ‘accounts’@mydomain.com’ in /homepages/25/d283441938/htdocs/clickandbuilds/staging/wp-includes/class-phpmailer.php:946 Stack trace: #0 /homepages/25/d283441938/htdocs/clickandbuilds/staging/wp-includes/pluggable.php(352): PHPMailer->setFrom(‘\xE2\x80\x98accounts\xE2\x80\x99@…’, ‘WordPress’) #1 /homepages/25/d283441938/htdocs/clickandbuilds/staging/wp-includes/pluggable.php(1726): wp_mail(‘webmaster@arlin…’, ‘[My Dev Sit…’, ‘New user regist…’) #2 /homepages/25/d283441938/htdocs/clickandbuilds/staging/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-members/bp-members-functions.php(2031): wp_new_user_notification(18) #3 /homepages/25/d283441938/htdocs/clickandbuilds/staging/wp-content/plugins/buddypress/bp-members/bp-members-screens.php(364): bp_core_activate_signup(‘JA0BvkK1Q0DND10…’) #4 [internal function]: bp_core_screen_activation(”) #5 /homepages/25/d283441938/htdocs/clickandbuilds/staging/wp-includes/plugin.php(524): cal in /homepages/25/d283441938/htdocs/clickandbuilds/staging/wp-includes/class-phpmailer.php on line 946

If I wait a while, then I get the normal webpage and it says “invalid activation key”. I don’t understand the significance of an immediate click on the link in the email vs. waiting a few more seconds, but it definitely matters.
