BuddyPress.org

BP accepts a new member’s registration just fine. An activation link is emailed out. The new member clicks the activation link, and they land on a page that says they’re able to now log in. Then when the member attempts to log in, they’re required to enter an “activation code”.

Where does this activation code come from? I don’t see it anywhere, and I’d prefer to just have new members click an activation link and be good to go. Can’t we just skip this activation code business?

In any case, please let me know how I can get this registration process running smoothly.
