Change default email settings

[Don]

How do I change the default mail settings in ver 2.8.2?  I need to modify the text sent to persons who signup to the site and also to send a notice to myself when they have signed up to notify me.

There is a nice module at

http://wbdemo.heysoft.de/pages/en/mpform/installation.php?lang=EN

but I want to use the settings in WB for now.

I  have had a look at the database, but surely there must be a safer way?

Thanks.

Aahhh .... can I use the EN.php  file to do this?



Edit:

Yes you can!  I changed the required text in here and it worked.  I have to assume this is the "correct" way to do it.

As far as a copy of the signup sent to Administrator, I used the same code I used to use in an older version of WB.  This code was overwritten when I upgraded to ver 2.8.   


}
}

// Send Administrator a message

    $mail_subject = 'New User';
    $mail_to = 'my email@net.com';
    $mail_message = ''.
 'A new user: '.$display_name.' has signed up to the website.';

    $wb->mail(SERVER_EMAIL,$mail_to,$mail_subject,$mail_message)

?>

This is added to the end of existing signup2.php.

This is not the best way I am sure, as I have to put my email address right into the code.

Is there a better way to do this in ver2.8?

Thanks

Hi Don,

Yes you can use the EN.php  file to do this. Think about a backup for this file, that it will not overwrite by upgrading.
