Hi Paul,

I can't find a switch that sends the admins an email when a new member signs up. Where is it?

Thanks
David

Admin -> Emails -> Email preferences -> Notify admins via e-mail of items pending validation?

If you mean even when there's no action needed, there's no option.

I didn't mean, getting an email about approving a new member. I have the member registration set to email activation only. I just also want an email after each new member, so I know there IS a new member in the system. smiling face See what I mean?

Then, as said in second part above, there's no option for that.

David,

A while back I had a client who wanted to get an email whenever someone logged into his site. I'm not sure how I'd get the username to show up in the email, but if you're not looking for any information in the email but just an email that says "someone has just registered" I can send you the code I used. Then in the Admin panel go down to the Redirects section and add a redirect for "After a user registers..." add the code to that page (make sure it's a page that is ONLY used for this purpose - for example don't redirect to the main page) when the page loads it will trigger an email to you.

Let me know if this sounds like what you're looking to do and I'll dig out the code for you.

Hai - I would be interested in that. If you manage to dig it out could you post it here please?

Cheers

Here you go. Add it to whatever page you want to trigger an email. I'm sure someone with more extensive knowledge of php could get it to pull usernames, ip addys or referral pages, but if you just want to know when someone has visited a particular page this should work.
