> I want to disable the email activation in discourse because I am using Wordpress for SSO (single-sign-in) so now the users have to validate twice, and that is poor customer experience. How can I remove the **activate** email requirement in discourse?

If users register through the default WordPress registation system, they should not be being forced to respond to the Discourse activation email when they first login to Discourse. If users register through a front-end registration system, they will have to respond to the Discourse activation email. If you are going to disable this, you need to be certain that your user’s email addresses are being verified when they register on your WordPress site.
