Plugin automatically activates new users

    Hi!

    I recently upgraded my site with a new theme (BuddyBoss Boss. theme) and am running WP 4.1.1 and upgraded from BuddyPress 1.9.2 to 2.2.1.

    I have a setup where I redirect the activation e-mail to the site admin to be able to manually control new members and verify their information before activating them and letting them log in. This is a cruical function for my site since it’s a private network.

    After the upgrade I noticed that some spam users were automatically activated and able to log in without my manual activation. I have narrowed down this issue and think it depends on this plugin. Is this a conflict with the new user management function in BuddyPress 2.0?

    This is from the BuddyPress 2.0 changelog:

    “Signups/registrations have been completely overhauled.
    Pending users can be managed at Dashboard > [Network Admin >] Users (resend activation emails, perform manual activations, and more)”

    I disabled your plugin and now I get a “your account is not activated” message when I create a dummy user and try to log in, which is how it used to work.

    Is this possible to fix?

    My apologies, upon further investigation this issue seems to persist even though I activated this plugin. Will have to keep looking for the solution to this issue.
