request for invitation to private group / approve e-mail link not working

  • @erich73

    Participant

    I did receive a request from a user to join a “private group”.

    Within the e-mail which I did receive (being Admin), the are a few links which I can select to either approve or reject this request.

    Clicking on the link for “approve this request” , goes to an empty website which only shows the text “are you sure you would like to do this ?”

    There is also a link which says “Please try again”. Clicking on this link does not do anything.

    Is this issue know already ?

    How to fix it ?

    BTW:

    I do have BP-version 1.0.1 and the german-language-version running on my website.

    Excellent! Someone else with this problem. If a third person could test and confirm, we’ve got ourselves a live one!

    this issue is also mentioned by another person at the german-language-Forum of http://www.buddypress.de

    So we are not the only ones having this issue….

    Hmm… Erich73 and DJPaul, private group invite worked for me on my sandbox BP install.

    I’m on WPMU 2.8.1 and BP 1.0.3.

    Hi r-a-y,

    many thanks for your answer !

    I do not understand what “sandbox” means, anyhow: will it be working when I do upgrade my website to the latest WPMU and latest BP-version ?

    Ah sorry about the lingo, Erich73!

    I meant on my local, test install of WPMU and BP.

    I can’t say for sure that upgrading will fix your problem, because if DJPaul is having the same problem, then it must be a legitimate problem!

    Although I’m not sure which version of BP DJPaul is running.

    I’m just going to try and clarify a few things here.

    In the “private group invite” email I received, this is what I got:

    One of your friends Ray has invited you to the group: "Private Group".

    To view your group invites visit: http://localhost.localdomain/members/test/groups/invites

    To view the group visit: http://localhost.localdomain/groups/private-group

    To view Ray's profile visit: http://localhost.localdomain/members/admin

    I click on the first link and it takes me to a BP Group Invites page, which allows me to accept or reject the invite.

    This is the process you guys are talking about right?

    Or are you talking about accept / reject links from within the email?

    I am getting the emails appropriately, but when I click on the link to approve/accept the group add, it gives me a website with “WordPress Failure Notice” at the browser title, and it asks “Are you sure you want to do this?” But it has no option for me to select yes, or check anything to actually approve. So this is still in the queue.

    Similarly, I cannot reject the request – and if I click on the link in the email that says to view the request, it takes me to the user’s profile – but the request is not listed. In fact, in his of groups, it lists (1) as the number of groups (assuming because he requested), but then underneath it says he “hasn’t joined any groups yet.”

    Can someone confirm whether this is a known with no current fix in the existing version or plugins?

    I have “WordPress Failure Notice” error you are getting, webatease with BP v1.0.3. I haven’t spent any time investigating it further yet tho.
