Hi,

I am having trouble with setting up the registering. What happens is that you are able to register and the emails are sent correctly. When you follow the link in the email to set the password - when you set the password a message is displayed saying:

401 Authorization Required

This server could not verify that you are authorized to access the document requested. Either you supplied the wrong credentials (e.g., bad password), or your browser doesn't understand how to supply the credentials required.

Please help as I seem to be going around in circles.

Thanks.

Hi @caelan,

User registration and account creation is a part of WordPress core. wpForo only provides a registration form.

At first, I'd suggest you deactivate other plugins and check again. Probably one of the active plugins caused the issue.

I've found the following support topics. Please read those support topics:

https://wordpress.org/support/topic/401-authorization-required-3/

https://wordpress.org/support/topic/401-unauthorized-5/

In case you want to say thank you 😊
We'd really appreciate and be thankful if you leave a good review on plugin page. This is the best way to say thank you to this project and support team.
