Registration Approval E-mail¶

The Registration Approval E-mail is used when you set up the Approved Registration on your website or online store. A user that registers on that website will be unable to log in (and also place an order within this registered account) until you approve his/her registration and make it active.

The Registration Approval E-mail can be sent at the moment you approve a particular account. In the Sales module in the Contacts application open the detail of a particular User. There are Registration buttons in the toolbar that activate or deactivate the user. Clicking the Activate button displays a new window which allows you to send the Registration Approval E-mail (you also need to select a website and culture for the e-mail).

To be able to send this e-mail, you have to set up its delivery in the Website Editor in the Security application first. Here, there is the E-mails part that allows you to define the delivery.

1. Code the template for Registration Approval E-mail in the Tools module. Remember that you are defining only a template, not its sending. Use the E-mail Template Parameters help-site to display personalized data (such as user’s login). Primary focus on the parameters from Account Templates section.

2. Define the usage of the template:

   1. Run a particular website editor for the website on which you want to define this Registration Approval E-mail Template (select the Website and click Edit button in the toolbar). Go to the “Tools and Settings” and run the Security application. Here in the E-mails section are the Account E-mails added.

   2. Click the Add button and in the E-mail Type field select the Registration. In Template select a Name of the particular E-mail Template you created in the application before.

      • The From Label field defines a name that will be displayed to the customer in the e-mail. Notice that this field can be translated in case you have a multilingual online store.

      • The From field should contain an e-mail address from which this email will be sent. For example an e-mail you use for storing customer support.

      • The Subject field is a subject of this e-mail that is displayed to the customer (together with From Label). For example “Your registration has been successful”.

3. When you are done, click the Add button and also the Save button in the upper left corner of the Security application. Approve your project and after that your e-mail will be automatically sent to visitors when they register on your website through the Registration Widget. Don’t forget to approve the Project first.
