I figured something must have stripped the key... I hope it doesn't happen to you again. I also think you should find ways to upgrade and stay recent with your versions. All my best! </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/user-registration-activation-link-produces-input-field#post-232015 Wed, 01 May 2013 08:30:21 +0000 KSILVER2 232015@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I figured it out someway. At least i could reproduce it.</p> <p>Apparently it is a fallback:<br /> Take a look at the "activate.php" file in plugins/gravityformsuserregistration/includes/. (In my case it's even in my theme file as well)</p> <p>There is an if-statement<br /> <code>&lt;?php if ( empty($_GET[&#39;key&#39;]) &amp;&amp; empty($_POST[&#39;key&#39;]) ) { ?&gt; ...</code><br /> and that statement checks if an key is submitted with the url.<br /> I tested it with an url like this: <a href="http://www.example.com//?page=gf_activation&amp;key=" rel="nofollow">http://www.example.com//?page=gf_activation&amp;key=</a><br /> So apparently there is no key. This could easily happen when some makes a wrong copy&amp;paste or something like that!</p> <p>I don't know why this happend in a new Safari Browser.<br /> Anyway, feel free to close this thread!</p> <p>cheers </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/user-registration-activation-link-produces-input-field#post-231788 Wed, 01 May 2013 03:21:41 +0000 KSILVER2 231788@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hey David.

I made a usability test with almost 30 people last week. Only one had a "problem" with the activation link. </p> <p>After she clicked on the activation link, she wasn't redirected to the confirmation site. She was redirected to a site where she had to ENTER the key. Take a look at this picture:<br /> <a href="https://www.evernote.com/shard/s31/sh/8e8e2b46-50bd-4aa8-96b8-4977ce09a70c/bc0d67e14000de4e4f01333fbf9a8c57" rel="nofollow">https://www.evernote.com/shard/s31/sh/8e8e2b46-50bd-4aa8-96b8-4977ce09a70c/bc0d67e14000de4e4f01333fbf9a8c57</a><br /> FYI: I just "rebuild" the case, it's not an original screenshot.</p> <p>Anyone else with this problem? It was an iMac with Safari.</p> <p>Apparently this is not a worst case scenario, but maybe it's an fallback from the developers or something else?</p> <p>We use:<br /> Gravity Forms - 1.6.12<br /> User Registration Add-on - 1.5.beta1.11<br /> WordPress 3.4.2. </p> <p>Thanks in advance! </p>
