Displaying User Email in Welcome Email

[kdays]

I am also looking at the best way to do this. I'd like to add the customer's email address that they used to register included in the welcome email. I can achieve this using the $EMAIL_TO_ADDRESS in the html template to achieve this welcome email:



The problem is that because I've used the html template file (email_template_welcome.html) to achieve this, it doesn't seem to flow through to the plain text email version.

Is there a way that I can call the customer's email address so that it can be used in the create_account.php file in the same way that STORE_NAME and EMAIL_FROM can be used.

Thanks for any and all suggestions :)

You would have to hard-code it in a custom copy of your /includes/modules/create_account.php file.

Thanks for pointing me in the right direction DrByte :)

DrByte, I've tried all sorts of variations of trying to code this in /includes/modules/create_account.php and am not having much luck.

I've been trying to use $email_address - is this correct?

What should the format be?

Thanks for your help.

You'll have to add $email_address to $email_text.

I've added $email_address to this line:

$email_text .= "\n\n" . EMAIL_TEXT . EMAIL_CONTACT . EMAIL_GV_CLOSURE . $email_address;

Do I also need to add an extra $html_msg statement?

$html_msg values are only used for HTML-formatted emails, which I thought you said were already working fine.
