I use the business edition of Hikashop

I need to get an e-mail notification when a new user register to my shop, because I need to change the status of this new member if necessary.

I made the Joomla (2.5) setting as followed:
In User Manager / Options / "Notification Mail to Administrators" is set to YES
In Super User / edit profile / "Receive System emails" is set to YES

Still I do not receive any notification :pinch:

I need this notification, what can be done that this will work?

looking forward to get an answer to solve this.

best regards
Raphael

Hi,

Joomla can actually do this, you'll just have to :

- Go to "Control panel->Global configuration->system->'New User Account Activation'"
- Set it to ADMIN

Hope this will help you.

Hi Mohamed

I don't want to activate the new user myself! They should be able to buy right away with the activation set to "SELF"
I need to get an e-mail notification when a new user is registered, because I also have Wholesale customer that register and therefore I need to change theire Status after they register.

With the setting I made in Joomla 2.5 (see abouve) ther should be a notification mail to Admin when a new user is registered.

This seems not to work when installed Hikashop.
I have the setting to "Simplified registration with password"

hope you can look into it and find a solution.

best
Raphael

Hi,

Hikashop doesn't handle the admin notification option of joomla yet.
You will need to edit the email "user account" via the menu System->Emails and add the following line:
<?php $data->email = array($data->email,'This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.');

That will send a copy of the user account creation email to the email address This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.

Hi Nicolas

Thanks for your answer.
If I get a copy of the registration mail, then I need to turn off, that the customer sees the password in the email.
Therefore I took away the send Password in the setting User Management/Option. But still I got the password send to the new user.

After checking the email setting (user account) in Hikashop I saw that there is a line with sending the password.
<?php echo JText::sprintf('HIKA_PASSWORD').' : '.$data->password;?><br/>
I took this away and now the customer does not get the password send.

What I like to know if this is the right way to do? Or is there a better way?

Best regards
Raphael
