Question

Where is the configuration for the email address that is notified when a user registers? I did a search in Docs and Support and found nothing that mentions this, but TWiki is picking up the email address somewhere.

Answer

If you answer a question - or have a question you asked answered by someone - please remember to edit the page and set the status to answered. The status is in a drop-down list below the edit box.

TWiki takes the e-mail address from the WIKIWEBMASTER setting in TWiki.TWikiPreferences and Main.TWikiPreferences topics. Do not change the preferences topic in the TWiki web, add the preferences you need to overload to the Main.TWikiPreferences topic.

Thanks for info.

It looks like it is also partly controled by:

• template/registerconfirm.*.tmpl
• template/registernotify.*.tmpl
• template/registernotifyadmin.*.tmpl

If I wished to not send any email to the webmaster, can I disable these being called, remove the files, or ...?

Thanks, Eric

I am not aware of a way to selectively disable the registration e-mail sent to the admin.
