Hi Donald,

Is your WordPress site sending out regular WP notifications such as password resets and new user emails?

No, how would I test that without changing password, create a new user?

Hello,

You can just logout of the WordPress admin and go to the WP login page and try to reset the password (there is a small link).

Its a two-step process so you can just request a new password but not confirm.

Let me know if any emails are received.

Alright great. Could you install this email audit plugin and activate it:

Then try resending a registration details email through the Attendee reports page.

Then check the email log to see if anything is recorded.

Try reinstalling the software through WordPress admin –> Plugins. You can download a new copy from your Event Espresso account.

Also ensure that a valid email is set in the General Settings page for Event Espresso.

If that doesn’t help, then I recommend trying the Mandrill transactional email service:

They offer a free option and there is a WordPress plugin available.
