This product allows you to be notified whenever a user changes their email address. You can choose to have selected users be notified by PM, or to set up a forum in which changes are posted to a specified thread, or both. You set the PM/thread title, and the format of the report.
Updates:
Version 1.1:
Changed PHP hook location so that alert(s) are sent only when everything is confirmed and the email has changed.
Compatibility:
Tested and working on VB 4.2.x and should work on all 4.x versions of vBulletin.
Backup/Warning:
This product does not alter your database, however it is always good practice to make regular backups and you should make a backup before installing ANY new mod.
As always, products are USE AT YOUR OWN RISK. I will provide support and do my best to help but no absolute guarantee is offered.
Excellent stuff, thank you.
However I second the Nirjonadda's request for FB like mod. Could be pretty useful.
Glad you like! :up:
That social media feature is not something this mod attempts to or will attempt to address. Your average vBulletin user is likely quite a bit (more like several orders of magnitude) more savvy than your average selfie-posting social media junkie, and knows how to maintain a valid email addy.
Nice mod but I have a better idea inspired from Facebook .. they periodically check if the email address still exist or not .. if it doesn't exist they prompt user to update email.
That's a good idea... hope to someone to do a mod like that...

This is not necessarily desirable. If the email is changed to an invalid address, or never validated, admins might want to be alerted to that change too.

It eliminates alerts being sent when users make mistakes filling out the form. An alert is only sent when the user actually makes a successful change of email address, whether the email address is valid or not.

hey Mark - is there a quick and dirty way to change the option to say
Hello!
{USER} has changed their email address used for mysite.
Previous Email: [OLD]
New Email: [NEW]
Hello, Scott.
The author of the PM/Post will let you know who it is that has changed their email addy, and so that's why I didn't include the name of the user in the body of the PM/post.
