Welcome the Technical Support section. Help us in assisting you by providing us with a concise and descriptive elaboration of your issues. Be specific and if possible, provide us with a step-by-step instruction in replicating your problem.
ISSUE SUMMARY:
When a new user registers through the Jomsocial registration form on my website front-end, no activation email is sent to the user.
In Joomla configuration I tried different methods (php, sendmail), and different email hosts (hotmail, gmail, @mydomain.com) and it is still not working.
STEPS TO REPLICATE:
1 Go to my website
2 Click "Register"
3 Fill the form till the end
4 See the message "An activation email has been sent to you, please click the link before you can login"
5 Check your registration email mailbox.
RESULT: No email received.
EXPECTED RESULT: Activation email should be received
BROWSER: Firefox and Chrome.
Please, check if you configured mail sending in Joomla! properly and if your email provided there is allowed to send emails from different domains.
- Instead of saying: 'it's not working', explain the problem in detail.
- Screenshots with the URL visible in them and the problem marked are more than welcome.
- Tell us how to replicate the problem, we can't fix it if we can't find it.
- Make sure that your site/server meets JomSocial System Requirements
- Make sure to setup JomSocial Cron Job
- Always provide us with access details to the backend and ftp. We need it to debug problems.
- If you have a similar problem, but a solution you found isn't working, open a new thread instead of 'merging' with an existing one.
