Please help with Create Account email - create_account.php changed - email the same

[hara]

The file is: includes/languages/english/create_account.php

The section is:

Line #35 : define('EMAIL_TEXT', 'With your account, you can now take part in the <strong>various services</strong> we have to offer you. Some of these services include:' . "\n\n" . '<li><strong>Permanent Cart</strong> - Any products added to your online cart remain there until you remove them, or check them out.' . "\n\n" . '<li><strong>Address Book</strong> - We can now deliver your products to another address other than yours! This is perfect to send birthday gifts direct to the birthday-person themselves.' . "\n\n" . '<li><strong>Order History</strong> - View your history of purchases that you have made with us.' . "\n\n" . '<li><strong>Products Reviews</strong> - Share your opinions on products with our other customers.' . "\n\n");

After you have changed it save it to your override directory, includes/languages/english/YOUR_TEMPLATE/create_account.php

Hello,

I'm also having this issue. I've made changes to the language file and they're showing up correctly if I got to tools > email welcome in the site admin, but the actual email sent is still an old version. The changes have been made to the file in the override folder and the original just for good measure, and there are no other, older files in the same directory. Any ideas anyone?

Delete the old create_account.php file, test it again see what happen.

I deleted both files:

/includes/languages/english/create_account.php and
/includes/languages/english/MY_TEMPLATE/create_account.php

Still the same message. Where could it be coming from? I'm using the Fast & Easy one page checkout. Anyone know if that has a different language file or anything?

Addons can sometimes create all kinds of weird problems.

What specific text is in the *wrong* email that's not in the *right* email? Search for *that* text using the Developers Toolkit.

If it's an image and emails are in HTML format, then it's likely a caching issue in your email reader client, and nothing to do with your website.

I've changed EMAIL_WELCOME, EMAIL_TEXT and EMAIL_CONTACT and none of the changes are showing up on the emails received, despite looking perfect in the admin preview (tools > welcome email). I've tried searching using Dreamweaver and developer tools, but found nothing. Have tried signing up using various diffrent browsers and various different POP accounts and webmail, as has my client, but all are the same.

Must be missing something obvious, but have run out of ideas!

Doh! Found it in login.php. It looks like the FEC module has appropriated that file for account signups. Thanks for all the helpful suggestions though

That will require significant modification to the /includes/modules/YOUR_TEMPLATE_NAME/create_account.php script. Be aware that since you are changing core system files, you will need to rebuild your changes every time you upgrade.
Be sure to also tell your customers that you are sending their personal identifying information over unsecured email, so they can decide whether they wish to take that risk before they give you their information.
