I want them to login via the home page on the website. so instead of “[http://mysite.com/wp-login.php”](http://mysite.com/wp-login.php”); have either no link at all or “[http://www.mysite.com/”](http://www.mysite.com/”); * I looked in the plugin code but couldnt see how to do it. Please can you help * Any suggestions will be gratefully recieved Many thanks Penelope * [blg002](https://wordpress.org/support/users/blg002/) * (@blg002) * [12 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/customizing-email-message-body/#post-4149368) * Any plans on making it possible to [customize the approval message sent to admins](http://wordpress.org/support/topic/customize-approval-message?replies=4#post-3443046)? * [Josh Harrison](https://wordpress.org/support/users/picklewagon/) * (@picklewagon) * [12 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/customizing-email-message-body/#post-4149369) * @big002 I am working on an add on plugin to make it super easy for you to customize all messages.

A feature request for said plugin: The ability to populate profile fields in that email. For example we have a custom ‘Bio’ field (it’s also a BuddyPress profile field for extra points) that is required and I’d love to have that info in the email. * [Josh Harrison](https://wordpress.org/support/users/picklewagon/) * (@picklewagon) * [12 years, 4 months ago](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/customizing-email-message-body/#post-4149371) * @big002 Thanks for the suggestion.
