Changing FROM address and name on Signup Notification Email

    Hello all,

    When receiving the Signup Notification Email after a new member registers, the email arrives from the name and address listed in “Signup Email From Name/Address” on the settings page. Is there a way to have it use the member’s name and email address as entered on the form instead?

    I looked around in PDb_Signup.class and noticed a few areas where the parameters for the email are set, but I don’t see where from “from” name and address is being defined.

    Any help would be much appreciated.

    The reason I’d like to do this is to be able to reply those emails and reach the specific member instead. Thanks.

    Anthony

    Normally, this kind of modification would be done using a filter, but I haven’t set up a filter for this purpose.

    I would suggest you add a link to the body of the notification email that when clicked will send an email to the new signup… I assume that’s why you want to do this.

    if you want to hack the plugin directly (not recommended) you are looking for a function named _do_notify() in PDb_Signup.class.php

    Yes, I am looking to hack the plugin directly. I do have the email field listed within the body already, but clicking it will not place the contents (the rest of the form data) within the body of the reply. Thank you for the function to look for.
