Hello,
I am having the same problem.
When a new user register on our website, they dont receive their username/password email. But the admin is still receiving an email about new user registration.
After de-activating this plugin new user are receiving their new account email correctly.
I have also tried this with new wordpress installation without installing any other plugin at the same time, but the issue is same no email to user.
It seems that the plugin needs to be updated, specifically the wp_new_user_notification function, see: https://codex.wordpress.org/Function_Reference/wp_new_user_notification#Notes
As of WP 4.3.1, null value is passed as second function argument. So if you have a plugged version of this function and are assuming that the second function argument is $plaintext_pass
then the newly registered user will not receive their welcome email.
So that’s why new users aren’t getting their emails.
A solution is to override it in your own plugin (it won’t work in functions.php due to plugins being loaded before that) using the code from the Examples section on the above page or from wp_includes/pluggable.php, see: https://core.trac.wordpress.org/browser/tags/4.4/src/wp-includes/pluggable.php#L1724
Have the same problem here! Any update planned to solve this issue?
Here’s an updated version of the plugin, following youdaman’s suggestion:

@jsulinski
There was a plugin with better customization options. That offers shortcode and a widget too.
Unfortunately, the author abandoned it and eventually removed from the repository. But is still available on his Github account. Could you take a look and update it so that we can all use it?

@vbk100 did you ever find an updated version of that plugin (or something similar)? I would love to see a copy
