Stop Confirmation email

SiLvEr_SnAkE · **Stop Confirmation email -** 09-10-2004, 07:33 AM

Right, i dont know whats wrong but my confimation emails are only sent sometimes not all - so i decided to do this (http://www.nukemods.com/modules.php?...ewtopic&t=3211)

But sometimes the email is sent, so they sign up click the link then get an email with the link in aswell.
How do i stop these emails being sent alltogether?

But bare in mind its only the signups email i dont want sent - becuase i have other modules that require an email being sent in order for a user to know whats happening.

I suggest running over to http://www.nukescripts.net and getting their Your Account module hack. It has just the feature you require. It also has the ability to resend the confimation emails.

OR
You can try opening your modules/Your_Account/index.php and find this line under the function finishNewUser part

Code:

       mail($user_email, $subject, $message, "From: $from\nX-Mailer: PHP/" . phpversion());

and comment it out like this.

Code:

//     mail($user_email, $subject, $message, "From: $from\nX-Mailer: PHP/" . phpversion());

There are more incidents of that line, but only comment out the one under function finishNewUser area.

I think that stops the sending of the Activation email only. I haven't tested it though. Make sure you backup that file first before modifying it.

Seems to work the commenting out the line, i ran a test sign up and no email was sent. I couldn't find the "Your Account Hack"

I tested the "Recommend Us" to make sure other email features still worked and sat for ages waiting for the email only to realise my junk mail filter got it first :P
Anyway, yeh it seems to work - i'll come back if it begins playing up

Thanks
