If you deactivate s2member plugin and change to bp-default theme, does regular registration work?
@mercime – I have deactivated s2member and switched to the buddypress default theme. Still there is the same error happening.
I have the same issue.
WP 3.4.2; BP 1.6.1; Whitelight Parent theme 1.2.7, Whitelight BP Child theme from lab zips. Tested on Chrome and FF.
Not using S2 Member.
I tried deactivating BP and registering, and all went smooth.
Any suggestions?
Please share what the activation link the email looks like. If you don’t want to post it publically, send it to me at paul@buddypress.org. We’ve occasionally had reports of this issue but have not yet been able to figure out how to recreate it, so a copy of the email as received by the user would be helpful.
Hi Paul. I have sent you an email at the address you provided me with containing 4 activation links that I have used to try and register using buddypress.
for what it’s work sign up works under these conditions:
1. Standard theme, no plug ins, email from hotmail account
But not under these:
2. Preferred theme [Whitelight BuddyPress child from LabZip – which otherwise works fine], plugins on, GMX.com account.
I suspect the GMX account as an unusual kind of redirect appears to happen.
Once I get my other problem fixed I’ll try the preferred theme with GMX and see what happens.

Thank you Gordon. I like buddypress, but if this problem persists, I will be forced to look at other options.
