BuddyPress Auto Activate Auto Login

On a standard BuddyPress site, a new member signs up and then has to wait for an email, open it and click a link. Emails arrive late, land in spam or never show up, and some people give up before they join. The plugin removes that step. Accounts are activated on registration, the user is logged in, and no activation email is sent, which also cuts down on questions about missing confirmations.

It plugs into the BuddyPress registration flow and needs no settings to get started. It works on single WordPress sites and on Multisite, covering username-only signups and username-with-blog signups. New users can be sent to their profile page after login, and redirects can vary by user role. Developers get filter hooks to switch automatic activation off in certain cases or adjust activation and login behavior.

Features

• Instant account activation: New accounts are activated as soon as registration finishes, so members do not wait on an email confirmation before they can use the community.
• Automatic login after signup: Users are logged in right after they register, which takes them straight from the signup form into active participation on your network.
• Redirect to the profile page: After login, new users are sent to their own profile page, giving them an obvious place to begin setting up and exploring.
• No activation emails: The plugin stops activation emails from being sent, which avoids confusion and support requests about confirmation messages that are missing or delayed.
• Multisite support: Works on WordPress Multisite and handles both username-only registrations and username-with-blog registrations.
• Role-based redirects: Choose where users land after login based on their role, so different kinds of members can get different starting pages.
• Works with registration add-ons: Supports the Gravity Forms Registration addon and the Force Login With Email plugin, for sites that already use them.
• Filter hooks for developers: Filters let developers disable automatic activation under certain conditions or customize how activation and login behave.
