    I am guessing that is one of the Jetpack settings.
    Try disabling JetPack and see what happens.

    If we need to look at anything we will need URL and WP admin details in a private reply.

    Thanks.

    Disabled JetPack in staging, and still seeing the issue. I’ll find out about getting an admin user and pass for you.

    Should I expect to see a validation error for the password field (from the login form) during registration?

    I believe I have solved our issue.

    In the GD General -> General settings, there is an option to ‘Allow users to choose own password’. If this marked yes, it appears that the expectation of the user is to fill out both the login and registration/sign-up forms when they first register. (If they do not, a validation error for the password length shows up.)

    If this is the case, the instructions for registering are subpar.
    If this is not the case, there must be a conflict somewhere.

    Turning this option off allowed the user to fill out just the registration form, and the email with the password goes out to the user. The user is returned to the GD listing from which they originally came.

    Thanks for the help!

    There is definitely a conflict there.
    That is not how it should work.
    That confirms there is something conflicting with the password field.

    The redirect to the page they came from is indeed correct.
