Title: Create new account and send the account info to the email user.
Post by: caribe on February 02, 2005, 09:20:59 pm

Hi,

How can I create, as Administator (of course nowing the user email) a new account on the "user" section and after the account is created, coppermine send the account info to the user email.

Thanks.

Currently there is no such feature in coppermine. Search whether any mod is available.

Aditya, this is not quite correct: of course there is such a feature (or rather a workaround): when logged in as admin, click on "Users" in the admin menu. At the bottom of the user manager page, use the button "create new users" that does exactly what you would expect. After creating the new user, log out from coppermine and use the "forgot password" on the login page to request an email with the login data to be sent to the user.
But this is a good idea for a new feature, I'll add it to the todo list: when the admin creates a new user, there should be a checkbox that says: "send login data to this user after creation" (by default unchecked).
