When a user registers on our site they receive an activation email. There are 2 problems in the email. First, the activation link in the message is rendered incorrectly. There is a 'qqq' inserted at the beginning of the link. Secondly, in the username field the url of the site is inserted instead of the actual username. Also, the message that states that after activation they can log in actually provides the same url as the activation link. It should be a link directly to the login screen or just to the homepage. So, I would consider that a third error.

1. for 'qqq' please try this:
www.jomsocial.com/forum/technical-issues...-has-two-links#62227

2. username field. pls check at /components/com_community/controllers/register.php line 832:

$message = JText::sprintf('COM_COMMUNITY_EMAIL_REGISTRATION_REQUIRES_ACTIVATION', $name, $sitename, $activationURL, $siteURL , $username, $password );

Following the instructions provided did fix the problem with qqq in the links. However the other 2 problems remain.

My /components/com_community/controllers/register.php file does have the line you referenced at line 832.

Also, I noticed that we have another registration link on our website which does not use the jomsocial signup page. When registering through that process the correct username and correct login information is provided.

Albertus,

I just changed the admin login info in the 1st post of this thread and I confirmed that it is properly enabled.

Albertus,

Yes, this is working now. But what will happen when jomsocial is updated again? This change will get overwritten by a new language file.

Hi Meagan,

yes, it will be overwritten. I suggest to backup your site first before upgrading. and after that if still have same problem. you can re-do the solution i gave to you.

here for references:
- Install or upgrade with iJoomla Installer - documentation.jomsocial.com/wiki/Installation
- Manually upgrade your existing JomSocial site: documentation.jomsocial.com/wiki/Upgrading

Cheers,
Albert
