I decided to run it from the localhost and it seemed to work.

Now it just gives me an "Connection timed out" error

Simple installation, until I hit the MySQL information. How does one to get the MySQL data with Cpanel, I've read that Cpanel gives it to you and others that you have to create it yourself?

Thanks, it worked on the one admin account, but the moderator account isn't being displayed as staff even the "Display user as staff" box has been ticked

Does anyone know how to put all the other staff on the Staff Sidebar on the "Members" page

Thanks for the info, I will keep it close in case this ever happens again.

Okay I fixed the problem, the issue was that the email was getting blocked by the hosting company. Fixed by creating an email through the Cpanel of the hosting. Thanks everybody for the help.

My Apologies, It just looked like you were trying to say no email is the only valid way to go and I was refuting your points with my own and then you refuted my points, similar to how an argument would go. With disabling validation, I'm still on the fence about doing it temporary instead of...

So your telling me that every website, every forum is at a disadvantage for requiring users to join with a email, I would believe these popular forums would beg to disagree. If it goes to junk mail, simple problem this can be fixed, also I believe Xenforo has a system in place for this called...

The thing is, its not mean to prevent the spam, its meant to slow it down as much as possible. If someone wants to spam without the email, they can just log out, create a new account and spam some more, before the moderators/admins can respond, they have multiple accounts. Email validation...

I would say it prevents spam, It means that people at the very least cannot just spam profanity, get banned then create a new account and spam more, it slows it down to an extent.

The email is set in the basic options No errors in relation to the email Already done those tests, 3 times no emails, even checked in all mail I'll check with my web host.

Yes, I am, also could this issue be related to me not yet upgrading to Xenforo 2.2.2

Yes, that's the issue

My new users of the forum cannot create an account because they are not getting an email sent. I have tried to run the email test to myself but nothing was sent, and the email bounce log said nothing was sent either. Does anyone know how to fix this issue?
