When a new user registers on my site, i have it set to send me an e-mail. But all the e-mail says is:

Code
  1. A new user has registered on the web site. User name: username
  2.  


I was wondering how i can have it show me the IP address that the user registered with, as well.

Got any ideas?

mmm... maybe changing the lang define _NOTIFYEMAILCONT1 would be enough :
NewUser/lang/eng/global.php

Code
  1. define('_NOTIFYEMAILCONT1','A new user has registered on the web site. '.pnServerGetVar('REMOTE_ADDR').' - User name: ');
  2.

If you do a phpinfo on your site

Example phpinfo.php

Code
  1. <?php
  2. phpinfo&#40;);
  3. <?


the pnSerVerGetVar('xxx') will show you most of the values of the APACHE ENVIRONMENT setcion and the PHP VARIABLES sections.

:wink:

So if i wanted to add th auth user name is would be
Code
  1. '.pnRequestGetVar('authusername').'
... Th reason i ask it doesn't say _SERVER in front of it. Its _REQUEST. So I'm assuming it isn't a "Server" Var .. or is it still? Its listed under the Variables.

Thanks :)

mmm nope... don't think so... along with the fact that there is no pnRequestGetVar function...

Only the $_SERVER vars will be returned.

The pnVarCleanFromInput might give it to you if it is a script that saved the value in the $_REQUEST part of the superglobals.

Code
  1. $x = pnVarCleanFromInput&#40;'x');
  2.
