Our Registration System is fine except for one problem -- it won't send out Activation Emails with working Links.
We are not alone -- many other sites are having this same problem because we all use the same, otherwise quite reliable, registration component. It's normally a very well supported open-source component, but it relies on a Developer Community that got hit with a surprize platform update. So the developers are focused on all the problems that caused.
It will take a bit of time for them to get around to fixing it.
In the meantime, we'll switch to a manual Registration Approval Process.
Until the automated email Activation System is fully restored --
All New Lion Registrations will be Manually Activated and Approved.
This may take up to 24 hours. This step is necessary to maintain security for our existing membership.
