Registration Email Not Sending

Hi,

When someone signs up for an event on our site, they do not receive a registration email. I tested it myself, but I never got the email. After registering, it says that I should receive an email shortly, but it never comes. We’re using WordPress version 3.9.2 and Event Espresso – 3.1.36.5.P.

Thank you.

Hi,

Generally speaking Email issues are due to server configuration.

Does the admin receive any confirmation emails?

Can you try installing a plugin such as ‘Check Email‘ and see you can send a test email from there?

I installed “Check Email” but didn’t receive an email. There was no error message though. I also contacted our host, DreamHost, about the issue but I haven’t heard back from them yet. I thought I would check with EventEspresso also to see if it’s something you guys can fix. So once DreamHost fixes the issue, registration emails should start working?

Hi,

Please try the Mandrill or Postmark app services. They take over email delivery from the native WordPress mail function:

Mandrill worked and now registration emails are going through.

Thank you for your help.
