Thank you so much! That worked perfectly. Much appreciated!

I’ll test out the 2.8.2 beta now and let you know what I find out. Thanks for updating so quickly! In addition I’ll empty the approved email and see what happens. Send you some updates shortly.

Thank you so much!! For the time being I’ll just go ahead and monitor user registrations without requiring activation. Once 2.8.2 is up I’ll give it a demo and see if we can get it up and running.

Once last question… I now have a large group of past members who are grandfathered into the wp-members database as unactivated users. How can I activate all my previous registrants without sending out a “user is approved” email? I’m worried this will confuse them and show users I’m fiddling with accounts on the backend.

I can verify that the custom password input, upon registration, works properly. I was able to create an account with a custom password when the “moderate registration” was disabled.

You are saying that if I remove this short code from the “user is approved” email:

Username: [username]
Password: [password]

and add it to the “registration is moderated” email, it will not create a system-generated password, even after I active the user? I attempted to do this. From the user side I received my username and custom password, but after the admin activated the profile, the custom password did not work. Any suggestions?

I can also provide admin access if that would help troubleshoot.

Thanks so much!

Hi Chad,

Thanks for all your hard work on this plugin! I also would LOVE to omit the username requirement for the forgotten password inquiry. My users are not likely to remember their user name (myself included). If I have to go find my user name I would search my emails to find it. If my email was compromised the person would already have my username and email address. For convenience I would recommend only the email. I’ve never been promoted to input username AND email for a reset, even on highly secure websites. If someone is that hell bent on getting into the site they’ll find a way. ??

For others with this problem, here is my workaround: I am going to implement a manual reset the passwords by uploading a contact form that asks a client for their email. When I get the reset inquiry I’ll reset the password and email them their updated login information (username and email). It’s NOT an automated system but it’s my only option since I know my users won’t remember their usernames. (I only use this for our social group so it’s not a huge set of users, but for others this is not an option)

Please please include this feature in the next updates! Thanks!!!

My feed isn’t pulling new hashtag content either. Not sure how to troubleshoot.

I wanted to note that I tried this with the current version of WordPress as well as the last version. I made sure to install it on two different accounts and demo via Chrome and Safari. No luck either way.

Same problem here!
