WP admin adding people #173

Closed lauraroverts closed 9 years ago

lauraroverts commented 10 years ago

I've added two new people to the WASH Alliance WP admin (contributors), but the automated activations emails don't get to come through. For example I added rkulanyi20@gmail.comm but she didn't receive the email. We had the same problem a few weeks ago with GNWP, which you solved then.

I have created an issue for this for carl and oliver. I will keep you posted on the solution! https://github.com/akvo/akvo-provisioning/issues/109

Can you please let me know where you posted the issue so that I can also keep an eye on it? Thanks!

I've added email details from the akvo.org mail server which can be used via the WP admin to push emails instead of relying on the server's smtp. This works. I've added it to the Washalliance site & it works.

These settings can be found under 'settings/email' for each individual site.

There are some oddities though which I think are due to how the Akvo Sites network WP install is set up - the emails come from 'Eveline@kominski.net' - I'm guessing @eefsparreboom is the original admin - we should look at how to change that. They should come from no-reply@akvo.org. or something similar.

Example of one received to my gmail account for new user 'John'.

Can someone let me know what the status is of this? This morning I added 3 new people to the DWA WP Admin, but just got feedback from one of them that she didn't receive the automated email yet.

eefsparreboom commented 9 years ago

This should work now. Can you ask the person to check the spam folder? Which email address does this refer to?

lauraroverts commented 9 years ago

It was the spam folder indeed. I can close this issue then?

eefsparreboom commented 9 years ago

Yes, I tested it on all sites and successfully received the invitations.
