Yes, wpForo uses the wp_mail() function.

User registration and account creation are core WordPress features. wpForo only provides the registration form with a different URL and design; all other related functionality is handled by WordPress itself.

We recommend checking the following FAQ for more details:

New users can register successfully via wpForo, and the WordPress user is created, but no registration / activation email is sent to the user.

Details

  • Site: https://168forum.my

  • WordPress 6.9, wpForo latest

  • Admin email works

  • Issue happens for all new registrations

Question
Does wpForo rely on WordPress wp_mail() for registration emails, and is SMTP required for user emails to be sent?

 

Thanks,
Simon
