Hi,

When a new user creates an account, jomsocial send an email too admin and an email to user and user wait for account validation. Fine.
The problem is that when admin validate account creation (by clicking in validate column in jomsocial members list), no mail is send and there's no confirmation message on screen.

Using firefox console, I've seen that the form is posted and result is okay (200) / JS error "Empty chain to getElementById -> jquery.min.js ). In fact the account is validated and user can log in, but he didn't receive any confirmation of his validation...

Thanks
Regards

Hi, ewajoom.

JS error has nothing to do with your issue. It comes from Joomla! itself and it's not an issue. It is designed to work that way.
Email is sent only if administrator approves user by clicking on activation link in email.
No email will be sent when administrator perform action in backend.


- Instead of saying: 'it's not working', explain the problem in detail.
- Screenshots with the URL visible in them and the problem marked are more than welcome.
- Tell us how to replicate the problem, we can't fix it if we can't find it.
- Make sure that your site/server meets JomSocial System Requirements
- Make sure to setup JomSocial Cron Job
- Always provide us with access details to the backend and ftp. We need it to debug problems.
- If you have a similar problem, but a solution you found isn't working, open a new thread instead of 'merging' with an existing one.

- Use the "Thank You" feature on any post that helped you

Hi,

- It could be a great improvement : imagine if you've got a big number of new member, you have to open each email in order to click on link...In backend it's more direct...
- I don't see any link in administrator email, here is what I receive :
Hello Super User,
A new user has registered at XXX......
This e-mail contains the details:
Name: rereer
E-mail: This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.
Username: ererer

I don't understand your response : I've made some investigations and find that in users controller, in ajaxTogglePublish() function sending a confirmation of account creation is implemented. So email will be sent when administrator perform validate account in backend (fortunately ! :))

administrator/components/com_community/controller/users.php
Line 643 :
if( $row->lastvisitDate == '0000-00-00 00:00:00' && empty($row->activation) )
Changed by :
if( $row->lastvisitDate == '0000-00-00 00:00:00' ) //&& empty($row->activation) )

Then I had to add translations for :
COM_COMMUNITY_ACCOUNT_APPROVED_SUBJECT and COM_COMMUNITY_ACCOUNT_APPROVED_MESSAGE
and it works fine.
