WP Activate Users

UPDATED: I have officially stopped development of this plugin.
There are just too many scenarios to keep track of. : <

NOTE: There is currently a bug in a Buddypress MU Installs.  It works fine in NON-MU installs of Buddpyress.

This plugin is for BuddyPress and BuddyPress MU Installs and allows you to manually activate users who have not activated their account via the email link. This can be used if the email doesn’t get to the user for any reason…ie spam filtering, email host etc. It places a menu in the Users menu in the wp-admin area of your site.

      as far as i know, the plugin works just fine with 3.0.3

      are you having any issues or is this just a concern?

      regards

    Am wondering why you’re adding some javascript when it appears it’s not being used at all on the admin page.

    Was causing a javascript error, so I commented out the “add_to_head” action.

      Hi Ray

      So i do use that function for the “activate” button. This is what shows and hides the “activate yes/no”

      I found an error that i think is what is causing the error (thank you) is that i have a “;” where i should have a single quote instead. it is on the jquery line that is a bit of brute force stuff : >

      Hi Ray

      Gotcha. when i tested what i did, it does work, however, yours is much better and more correct. Thanks for helping out I will have to revisit the plugin in the next week or so to determine if it is something that i can remove. I think it is for buddypress with MU/Network

    Is there a way to have this plugin automatically email the user to tell them they have been activated?

      Hi Joe

      I will look into this over the weekend. What install are you using? BuddyPress and WordPress? WordPress Network? WordPress Network and BuddyPress?

      Thanks

    So I’m getting an error

    Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in wp-activate-users.php on line 160

    This is the last line and the closing PHP bracket

    ?>

    Any ideas?

    This is a bitnami stack installation if that helps at all.

      Hi Jason

      So this is a plugin that i have not been maintaining well. The rapid changing nature of MU/Network has made upkeep kind of hard. What version of WordPress and/or MU/Network are you using?

      Regards

    Hey Matt,

    It’s WordPress 3.2.1 with Buddypress.

    I’m looking to use your plugin to get around the fact that users are sporadically getting activation emails.

    This plugin still has some pretty big errors on line 40

    There is a curly quote – which should be a regular double quote

    Then that quote is never closed – need to be

    line 40 should be rewritten as:

    $('#signup-welcome p:last-child').css('display', 'none');

    Is there any reason there are 3 script blocks one after another, instead of just one?

    I had to turn this script off because it was breaking to many other things on buddypress.

    I do like the concept, and your almost there. But these few things have been brought up in the past but never corrected.

      Hi

      So i have basically stopped developing this plugin. There was a time when i could not keep up with the development for all the scenarios that people would use this plugin for. i.e. buddypress, buddypress/network, network, and wp on its own.

      I apologize for any inconvenience or stress this may have cause you

      Matt
