I now face some strange behaviour concerned with jomsocial registration.
A new member registered, but instead of getting a notification email about the new member, the site admin receives a notification email containing the registration details of an already existing member.
So, something is going wrong.
Can you help?
Hi, Randolph.
Thank you for contacting us.
Administrator should receive new user registration email notifications.
If you set in Administrator account in backend "receive system emails" then notifications to admin will be sent.
Hi Michal,
I do receive system emails. My problem is different from that.
Here's a step by step explanation:
1) New user registers
2) Admin receives email (starting with "Account Details for person XXX")
3) Admin receives second email (starting with "New user registered and is awaiting administrator approval ... This email contains the details: Name: YYY)
)
However, the second email comes along with user details that don't match with those of the person who has registered ( in my example: XXX). It contains the user details of another person, already being member (In my example: YYY).
HI, Randolph.
Actually those emails are sent and created by Joomla! itself... nevertheless I'll ask developer to take a look
Hi Randolph,
Would you mind provide me backend and FTP access, please? put it on credentials info.. so I can test it directly
thank you!
Dear Dimas,
the strange behaviour continues on every registration. I will send snapshots of the weird notification emails via PM.
When I try to activate the new member, I get:
"Error
The most recent request was denied because it contained an invalid security token. Please refresh the page and try again."

Hi,
I just registered your site and works fine.. same name on register and same name on email
Hi,
yes because the user it self should activate the members, so admin wont get it :)
Dear Dimas,
Joomla allows me either to activate new memberships automated (the case you describe), or through activation by administators. In order to avoid registration of scammers, we decided for the second option. That means every new membership so far has to be activated by an administrator. Doesn't Jomsocial support this option anymore?
I attached a screenshot of our Joomla settings. Is there anything wrong?
Remark: The described, weird behaviour of notification emails is very new. And it seems to me that it appeared only after update to Joomla 7.1.
Hi Randolph,
Because you activated profile type and some of profile type set activation options to by user it self, doesnt need activation by admin.. so please you check your Jomsocial profile type make sure all profile type need approval from admin first :)
