Turning Send Welcome email option off ?

[Enric]

Hi everyone,
Is there a way to turn the Elcome email option off when a new users creates an account, we don't want to bother customers with the welcome email, so can anyone help?

Thanks in advance...

In admin/email_welcome.php comment out around line 115 where it says:

zen_mail($name, $email_address, EMAIL_SUBJECT, $email_text, STORE_NAME, EMAIL_FROM, $html_msg, 'welcome');

so it would read:

// zen_mail($name, $email_address, EMAIL_SUBJECT, $email_text, STORE_NAME, EMAIL_FROM, $html_msg, 'welcome');

This shuts off the send mail function.

This is already commented out. What now?

I went to the create_account.php file and took out the part about sending a welcome message. But it still sends one. What's going on? Does it have something to do with using PayPal?

The actual email is sent from the file:
/includes/modules/create_account.php

to the customer:

    // send welcome email
    zen_mail($name, $email_address, EMAIL_SUBJECT, $email_text, STORE_NAME, EMAIL_FROM, $html_msg, 'welcome'); 

to the admin:

      zen_mail('', SEND_EXTRA_CREATE_ACCOUNT_EMAILS_TO, SEND_EXTRA_CREATE_ACCOUNT_EMAILS_TO_SUBJECT . ' ' . EMAIL_SUBJECT,
      $email_text . $extra_info['TEXT'], STORE_NAME, EMAIL_FROM, $html_msg, 'welcome_extra');

PayPal Express Checkout will still send the email. This is important, because it contains their password too.

I like the welcome e mail but would love to NOT have the link show up to my store at the bottom of the e mail. How do I get rid of that? I point a different domain address to my zencart store and don't want my main address to show up in the e mail. How do I remove??

Is there some specific text you want removed, or just the link?

If you look at the specific text that's next to the link, and then look that up via the Developers Toolkit (Admin->Tools menu), you can usually find the right file to edit.

ie: includes/languages/english/YOURTEMPLATE/create_account.php

define('EMAIL_CONTACT', 'For help with any of our online services, please email the store-owner: <a href="mailto:' . STORE_OWNER_EMAIL_ADDRESS . '">'. STORE_OWNER_EMAIL_ADDRESS ." </a>\n\n");
define('EMAIL_GV_CLOSURE','Sincerely,' . "\n\n" . STORE_OWNER . "\nStore Owner\n\n". '<a href="' . HTTP_SERVER . DIR_WS_CATALOG . '">'.HTTP_SERVER . DIR_WS_CATALOG ."</a>\n\n");

I don't want my url (xxx.com/zencart/blah blah) to show up on ANY of the e mails. If there a way to kill it from showing up? THANK YOU!
