Activation email not getting sent #297

Closed Ary33 closed 9 years ago

Ary33 commented 9 years ago

Forgive my ignorance but... I am not receiving the activation email that is supposed to be sent. I don't know if it is because I am on localhost or not. I'd like to think it was that simple. It tells me that it was sent and I've resent it various times but still nothing. Does anyone have any idea of how to fix this?

If you're running CommunityEngine in development mode, the email will simply show up in your terminal. Scroll up a bit in your terminal and look for something like this:

Thank so much for your time and answer. I'm going to give it a go right now! I've been trying to write my own social network site for a few months now, (without a lot of success), so I want to thank the Community Engine Team for all your hard work coding! I'm trying to do miracles with your engine so I'm sure you'll get more questions from me. It's nice to know that you're there responding to the doubts us noobs have. Thanks again :)
