Registration Fail for BP Installed in Secondary Blog in Subdomain Structure

[mercime]

Addendum for same install:

• In dashboard menu BuddyPress > Invite Anyone, I've allowed changing of Subject Line and Message. However when I wanted to invite via members/admin > Send Invites, the Send Invites page panel shows Subject line as grayed out (fixed subject line) and the Message textarea is grayed out as well.

I got your email invitation, but I noticed that registration is turned off on your BP install. Could that be the source of this problem?

[mercime]

Network Admin > Settings > Settings > Registration Settings > Allow new registrations == "Logged in users may register new sites"

I use this setting in many cases and this is same setting used in previous MS install in that same domain where BP was installed in blog_id_1 and invitations were successful before I deleted everything for a clean install to make that report to trac.

Truth be told, I don't install BP in secondary blog with MS in subdomain structure because of the subdomain--subdomain issue. It would be interesting to know why registration won't go through though.

I will investigate further this week and report back. Thank you.

Have you checked "Allow email invitations to be accepted even when site registration is disabled" in the Invite Anyone settings?

Given your other problem (with greyed out fields) it's possible that the secondary blog isn't pulling up the options correctly. I think that the options may, by default, be stored in blog_id=1's options table. Can you check that?

Yes, "Allow email invitations to be accepted even when site registration is disabled" in the Invite Anyone settings?" was checked.

Didn't think to check the options table.

So for blog_id_2, options table only had one row for your plugin,
Row = "widget_invite-anyone-widget"
a:3:{i:2;a:0:{}i:3;a:3:{s:5:"title";s:13:"Invite Anyone";s:16:"instruction_text";s:72:"Enter one email address per line to invite friends to join this site.";s:12:"email_fields";s:1:"3";}s:12:"_multiwidget";i:1;}

And, you're right, for blog_id_1, I had the main event here with two rows

Row = "invite_anyone"

a:17:{s:26:"default_invitation_subject";s:62:"An invitation for you to join BuddyPress Testing from Mercime.";s:26:"default_invitation_message";s:123:"You have been invited by %INVITERNAME% to join the community.

Visit %INVITERNAME%'s profile at %INVITERURL%.";s:23:"addl_invitation_message";s:130:"To accept this invitation, please visit %%ACCEPTURL%%

To opt out of future invitations to this site, please visit %%OPTOUTURL%%";s:23:"subject_is_customizable";s:3:"yes";s:23:"message_is_customizable";s:3:"yes";s:11:"max_invites";s:1:"5";s:28:"can_send_group_invites_email";s:3:"yes";s:24:"bypass_registration_lock";s:3:"yes";s:15:"cloudsponge_key";s:0:"";s:23:"email_visibility_toggle";s:8:"no_limit";s:10:"days_since";s:0:"";s:12:"minimum_role";s:10:"Subscriber";s:15:"email_blacklist";s:0:"";s:23:"group_invites_can_admin";s:6:"anyone";s:29:"group_invites_can_group_admin";s:6:"anyone";s:27:"group_invites_can_group_mod";s:6:"anyone";s:30:"group_invites_can_group_member";s:6:"anyone";}

Row = "widget_invite-anyone-widget"
a:2:{i:2;a:0:{}s:12:"_multiwidget";i:1;}

Thanks for taking a look, mercime. This gives me a sense of where to debug. Follow this ticket - I'll post an update if and when I figure out the problem!
