Welcome Email HELP !

Please help, for days now I've read though the forum I've followed links I've messed up codes, all in an attempt to alter the email sent as a welcome to new cutomers who create an account.

The email is shown via > admin, tools, email welcome, I can see a sample but
I CANT FIND THE FILE :cry: to edit it, I'm running a "future Zen" template.

Can someone please point me in the right direction.

Thanks
Chris

Override includes\languages\english\create_account.php

(includes\languages\english\your_template\create_account.php)

Thanks Steven however, when I go to includes\languages\english\your_template\create_a ccount.php I don't have any other templates in english other than "classic"

What else could I try ?

Sorry I'm not quite sure what you mean. Have you setup a custom template? If so, you need to create a new folder in your includes\languages\english directory and name the folder the same name as your custom template. Then make a copy of includes\languages\english\create_account.php and put it inside the new folder and make your changes to the copy (includes\languages\english\name_of_your_template\create_a ccount.php).

Thank you, I understand now, I sense something has just dropped :clap:I think it's a penny.

Thanks Steven.

Glad to help :smile:

To add on, if you want to customise how the actual email looks when sent out, the email templates are in the email folder in the main set of folders, ie where admin, includes, etc are, those templates all have their own styling in the templates themselves :)

Thank you, Allways trying to learn as I pick myself up each time.

Thanks

You're welcome, I'm pretty much a newbie too with only a smattering of php knowledge, but I am surprising myself with how much I am learning here :)
