Notify Admin Of New Registered User

[Focker]

Could an option be added in the Email Dashboard menu for those who are interested in receiving an email notification of a new registered user?

Enable/Disable - Receive new user notification
Send notification to email to - "Your email address here"


Thank you,
Focker

This would be very useful.

At the moment you need to manually check for new users but receiving a notification email would be very helpful.

Actually this is dead easy, I've no trouble in add this thing.

I would like to have this function too. I see this is now quite old but I can not find any place where it can be activated so I assume it was never added?

Old? It's been a week. 😉

Sorry 🙁

I was looking at Barry's join date instead of the posting date. How embarrassing.

+1 here to, the world is full of scammers/spammers and I'd like to keep them away from my site before they post.
Is it possible to add an approval process for new users?

 

[Gambalunga]

You can ban both users and ip addresses.

Any chance of this making the next update?

Thanks, this will be added in next revision.

Actually, after rereading this, I maybe have to clarify my initial request a bit:

What I had in mind was to have a notification about a new users in the "notification area" only. The part, where the "user xy follows you now" and other messages appear.

I also can imagine, that mass creating users can lead to message flooding, so a limit may be necessary.

What about a daily email digest? Notify about all the accounts created (if any) every day.

Both of these are great ideas.

Possibly an option would be to have the notification as standard but an email as a selectable option.

Anyway, may I know why so many of you want to be notified when someone registers?

You should start with the problem, not the solution. I usually detect the problem/need right away and that's why the stuff that I add has certain minimum usefulness, but in this case, I don't get it. I don't understand what you gain by getting those notifications.

If I can understand the need behind this then I can craft several notification options and toggles, but unfortunately, I don't get it.
