Hi guys
Firstly, I am posting here about this issue
https://wpforo.com/community/how-to-and-troubleshooting-2/cant-send-report-email/
In that forum a support guy suggested advice for this specific issue would be provided here rather than there.
I have recently installed wpForo on a brand new WordPress installation on a localhost to evaluate its functionality.
When it comes to reporting posts, I too get a "Can't send report email" error.
This is the current config and settings:
- The user attempting to report belongs to the "Registered" Groupid
- In Forum Accesses I have confirmed that "Standard access" 'Can report' checkbox is ticked
- wpForum is the only plugin enabled in Plugins
wpForo version 1.6.2
WordPress version 5.2.2
Is there anything else I can check?
Thank you

Hi @fawp,
As far as we understand the issue is related to SMTP settings.
Please install the following plugin, check what happens to your emails (via its logs and diagnostics).

Thank you @astghik for pointing me in the right direction, I think I have solved the problem.
One more question - when you report somebody through the wpForo report function, does the system send the report email only, or is there a way to enable a notification (e.g. either in the wpForo control panel or via BuddyPress)?
