… and done a global search and replace to change any reference to the previous directory structure… – I’m referring to the database here.

No other changes – all that is different is PHP version (which I can’t help suspecting) and Apache version.
I have basically copied over the directory structure and database, changed the ip address in the WP db and done a global search and replace to change any reference to the previous directory structure. Almost everything else is working OK – still have one other glitch to figure out…

If I try and reinstall the plugin I get the following message:
Plugin could not be activated because it triggered a fatal error.
…but I then have to delete it completely otherwise I think it starts giving me the error anyway (I could be wrong about that – it might have been cache or something)

Thanks for looking

hah – tracked it down to custom login (3.2.4) plugin – this presumably messes with the mail functionality of wordpress core – once I deactivated it properly (not just unhooking it from wordpress on it’s own settings page), emails started working properly again.
Rather have functioning users and BBPress than a pretty signup screen!
Phew

Hi I have tied on Chrome and Firefox so don’t think it can be a plugin (but tried disabling firefox extensions anyway and it made no difference). Buddypress gives the same error… ??

anyone? I’ve run out of ideas…

I just get invalid username…
Don’t get it – https://bbpress.org/forums/profile/thewoosh/ shows me as a member but at the top right I am shown as anonymous…

yeah thanks for the suggestion, I already tried that – whatever account I login to www.ads-software.com with it doesnt work with BBpress forum

I notice that when I change a password a notification is emailed to admin, so WordPress core is sending emails…

BTW new users are signing up using BBPress signup shortcode, which is sending initial registration activation email correctly. So it is perhaps the WordPress core email functionality that is failing (if this uses a different mechanism)…
Thoughts?

emails from contact forms also are going out fine..

…also if I manually add a user, making sure to check the ‘send user notification’ box, still no email is sent…
Don’t know what to do next

yes. Any ideas what is going wrong?
Thanks for replying

I found the upgrade to 4.4.1 introduced formatting errors that caused my [su_row] to break in two separate site upgrades. I found pasting the content from the upgrade fixes the problem…

I want to revise my previous comment – The plugin IS working OK with 4.4.1 – I had a non-breaking space within the su_row shortcode that somehow got there in the upgrading process but I spotted this using chrome debugger and once replaced with and ordinary space all is well again!

I too have a problem with this plugin and 4.4.1 – I am testing the WP 4.4.1 upgrade on my local copy of a site before going live and I just see the shortcode [su_row class=”5-col-adjust homepage_bottom_image_row”] displayed where my custom layout should have been…

I am upgrading from 3.9 so I don’t know at what point in the WP development cycle it became broken… Is there any point in me delaying upgrade till the developer releases a fix?
