Before I go out and code this with a hook myself... I was wondering if anyone knows of any easy solution to notify a given admin email address when someone signs up with Register?

Thanks.

Am I missing something? I don’t see anything in the docs about admin notification.

Hehe, turns out there's an example hook to do this very thing ]in the docs. Guess I'll use that...

Hi Does anyone please know how to do this but only once the user has confirmed registration via email?

Thanks very much for any help. I tried adding the posthook to [[!ConfirmRegister]] like this: [[!ConfirmRegister &postHooks=`hookComEmail`]]

but to no avail! Thanks again for any help.

I'm almost sure that the OnUserActivate System Event is fired by the ConfirmRegister controller, so a plugin attached to that event could send the admin an email when the user is activated.

At that point, the username would be available with:

$user->get('username');

Hi thanks Bob, how would I make and attach a plugin to that event? I can't see that call in the snippet... I have the hook code ready which is:

$message = 'Hi, a new User signed up: '.$hook->getValue('username')
 . ' with email '.$hook->getValue('email').'.';
$modx->getService('mail', 'mail.modPHPMailer');
$modx->mail->set(modMail::MAIL_BODY,$message);
$modx->mail->set(modMail::MAIL_FROM,'[email protected]');
$modx->mail->set(modMail::MAIL_FROM_NAME,'PDF Match');
$modx->mail->set(modMail::MAIL_SENDER,'PDF Match');
$modx->mail->set(modMail::MAIL_SUBJECT,'New User Registration');
$modx->mail->address('to','[email protected]');
$modx->mail->setHTML(true);
if (!$modx->mail->send()) {
    $modx->log(modX::LOG_LEVEL_ERROR,'An error occurred while trying to send the email: '.$err);
}
$modx->mail->reset();
/* tell our snippet we're good and can continue */
return true;

Thanks again for any help.

The event invocation is not in the snippet, it's in the controller file (which hopefully executes when the user confirms registration).

To implement, replace the first line with this:

$message = 'Hi, a new User signed up: '.$user->get('username');
$profile = $user->getOne('Profile');
if ($profile) {
   $message .= ' with email' . ' . $profile->get('email');
}

Paste the code into a plugin.

On the System Events tab of the plugin, check OnUserActivate. [ed. note: BobRay last edited this post 10 years, 1 month ago.]

Hi Bob that is very clever! Unfortunately it doesn't seem to have worked. Now when I get the registration validation email, I click the link to complete my test registration and for some reason it doesn't activate me as a user...

Let me check that plugin again with you:

<?php
$message = 'Hi, a new User signed up: '.$user->get('username');
$profile = $user->getOne('Profile');
if ($profile) {
   $message .= '' with email . ' . $profile->get('email');
}
$modx->getService('mail', 'mail.modPHPMailer');
$modx->mail->set(modMail::MAIL_BODY,$message);
$modx->mail->set(modMail::MAIL_FROM,'[email protected]');
$modx->mail->set(modMail::MAIL_FROM_NAME,'PDF Match');
$modx->mail->set(modMail::MAIL_SENDER,'PDF Match');
$modx->mail->set(modMail::MAIL_SUBJECT,'New User Registration');
$modx->mail->address('to','[email protected]');
$modx->mail->setHTML(true);
if (!$modx->mail->send()) {
    $modx->log(modX::LOG_LEVEL_ERROR,'An error occurred while trying to send the email: '.$err);
}
$modx->mail->reset();
/* tell our snippet we're good and can continue */
return true;

Did I miss something? I ticked the OnUserActivate also as you said.

Thanks again.
