 Hi @zodiac1978

 I see. I've looked into it deeply. I'm afraid, this is something we
 shouldn't do, even the change I've added in the patch actually.

 BuddyPress tries to handle new user registrations in a similar way whether
 you use a multisite configuration or not. The process is:
 1. The user signs up using a specific form where **he can set his
 password**
 2. He receives an email with an activation link
 3. He clicks on the link to activate his account
 4. He uses the password he set in point 1. to log in.

 If we'd use the hook you were referring to, then WordPress would send an
 email to ask the user to set a new password for the non multisite configs.
 I've checked using a unit test. This is not consistent with our process.

 I'm going to leave this ticket open to let another member of the team
 (like @r-a-y for instance 😉) eventually contradict me, but (sorry) to me
 we should close this ticket as `wontfix`
