This module makes it possible to automatically send a notification email to all administrators (or to a single email address, see the 'settings' dialog of the module) when a new registered user waits for approval.

Of course, the "Registration Verification" option from the "Admin - General" dialog must be set to "verified by a Moderator".

Language files for Dutch, Dutch_informal and English are included. The English version may need better translation I guess. These language files contain the subject and body texts of the notification email.

Tested with Phorum 5.1.14.

Have fun!

I think you will make many people happy with this module.
I've seen multiple requests for this feature.
Thanks for contributing!

I've been trying to put IP information into the email but
haven't yet succeeded;~/ Think the relevant information
is contained in {MESSAGES->ip} so I inserted it into the
registration_notification.php file (addition in red):

	      "username"    => $userdata["username"],
	      "userip"      => $userdata["{MESSAGES->ip}"],
	      "login_url"   => phorum_get_url(PHORUM_LOGIN_ACTION_URL)

and then called it for the email message using the LANG file:

$PHORUM["DATA"]["LANG"]["registration_notification"]["Message"] = 
"\n'%userip%'\n\nA new user '%username%' \n(%useremail%) \n
is waiting for registration approval \non forum '%forumtitle%'.\n\n
Log in at %login_url%\n\n\n
--- this message is automatically generated by 'Phorum' ---";

It doesn't work, would you please point me in a more fruitful direction?

heh,
{MESSAGES->ip}
is a template variable and these are surely not converted in the plain .php files.
you might want to put in

	      "userip"      => $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'],

Slightly improved;~)

It puts in the 'local' or computer position's IP
and not the more useful ISP IP... For instance in
my own test the IP shown on the registration email
was that of my intranet (10.0.0.1).

what?
its the remote address, so the one transferred as the clients ip.
if you are connecting from a local pc it can only transfer the local ip, you don't have access to any other data.

I see... OK, will run with it and wait for a real registration ----thanks;~)

just a remark: if you've installed folders with virtual roots and you want to send the admin the url of the "user selected" folder, you have to add to

registration_notification.php:
$mail_data = array(
"mailmessage" => $PHORUM["DATA"]["LANG"]["registration_notification"]["Message"],
"mailsubject" => $PHORUM["DATA"]["LANG"]["registration_notification"]["Subject"],
"useremail" => $userdata["email"],
"forumtitle" => $PHORUM["title"],
"forumid" => $PHORUM["forum_id"],
"username" => $userdata["username"],
"login_url" => phorum_get_url(PHORUM_LOGIN_ACTION_URL)
);

lang/english.php (or your matching language file):
$PHORUM["DATA"]["LANG"]["registration_notification"]["Message"] = "\nA new user '%username%' (%useremail%) is waiting for registration approval on forum '%forumtitle%'.\n\nLog in at %login_url%?%forumid%\n\n\n--- this message is automatically generated by 'Phorum' ---";

Is there an update for version 5.2.6a ?
Trying this script with the last Phorum version results in

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: phorum_user_get_moderators() in
