[Phpwebsite-developers] Account sign up email

<html> phpWebsite (in User.php) currently sends out this hard coded message to a new registrant:<br><br> "Welcome to Radio Left !<br> You or someone else has used your email (lu...@ho...) to create an account at Radio Left. <br> The following is the member information: <br> -Nickname: lulu <br> -Password: hemkciklic"<br><br> I've had several people write to us in a panic because they think someone has access to their account (or whatever). While this email is clear to me, it isn't clear to some of our users. So, I modified the message to the following:<br><br> "Welcome to Radio Left !<br> Your account has been created at Radio Left. <br> Here is your member information: <br> -Nickname: Elmo <br> -Password: suchanyeswhy<br> <font color="#0000FF"><u><a href="http://www.radioleft.com/" eudora="autourl">http://www.radioleft.com</a></u></font>. <br> (If you did not request this account, someone else entered your email address (el...@ho...), probably by mistake. Since they do not have the password, they cannot use the account, so, no action is required on your part. Simply ignore this email.)"<br><br> I prefer this wording because it puts the exception (the person didn't sign up for the account) at the bottom so it is less confusing.<br><br> Perhaps, The wording could be changed in a future release of phpWebsite, or, the message could be administrator configurable. I've been quite successful in using the new version of phpWebsite without changing any code -- only the theme. And, of course, we don't want to modify the code because we don't want to get locked in to a particular version.<br><br> Geoff</html> |
