Extension:New User Email Notification

The New User Email Notification extension sends a customisable email to specified recipients when a new user account is created. The extension can send to multiple users, and additional email addresses, and is useful for keeping track of account creation on a small wiki.

Requirements
The New User Email Notification extension is available for MediaWiki 1.5.0 and later.


 * For MediaWiki 1.8.0 and above, use the trunk version
 * For the MediaWiki 1.5, 1.6 and 1.7 series, use the branched version

Installation

 * 1) Place extension files into a "NewUserNotif" directory in your MediaWiki "extensions" directory
 * 2) Add the line   to LocalSettings.php

Installation can be verified through the Special:Version page on the wiki.

Configuration
The behaviour of the extension, including notification recipients, is managed using the configuration variables below:

$wgNewUserNotifTargets : Array containing the usernames or identifiers of those who should receive a notification email; defaults to the first user (usually the wiki's primary administrator) $wgNewUserNotifEmailTargets : Array containing email addresses to which a notification should also be sent

$wgNewUserNotifSender : Email address of the sender of the email; defaults to the value of $wgPasswordSender

Customising the notification email
The subject and text of the notification email sent to each recipient can be customised using two messages:

MediaWiki:Newusernotifsubj
Subject line

MediaWiki:Newusernotifbody
Body text
