PMs aren't being sent after upgrading to 3.5.1. Any ideas?

Hi Andreas !

One thing concerning your nice hack: I have activated the e-mail verification for new users. When a user register, and confirm his registration via the link in the mail, he gets the welcome PM. Everything fine.

But.. If a registred user changes his e-mail adress, the same process is started. He gets an email, and must confirm his new mail-address. He is doing this and: Yes, he gets again the welcome PM, though it is an "old" member, that only changed his mail-address.

Is there maybe a way, you can recognize, if it is an acacount-activation from a new registration or from an e-mail change ?

It would be nice, if the PM is only send to really new users.


Best regards

This should not happen - except if he hasn't made any posts.

Yes, sorry, you are right.

The board is not active yet, and I tested it only with my testuser, who had no postings.

Well, if the user has no postings there is not much criteria that could be used to determine if it is th first activation or one due to an eMail change.
Besides that, vBulletin itself uses the same criteria to decide if a welcome eMail should be sent or not.

does this work with 3.5.1?

thanks...installed

does this work yet cuz when i tried it it didnt... and i couldnt get any support on it neither, could it be that it doesnt work if you have welcome thread installed?

Works with no problems for me?
