System notification via email when a user signup

Open nicfab opened this issue 2 years ago • 10 comments

Currently, there is no system notification when users signup for the community. It will be appreciable if you implement it because it avoids the admin continuing to check the community on the web.

I add that it will be relevant also set a notification when users add content.

I'm confused about what you're saying here, because we already have a panel for registration applications.

Any user that signs up to any community, it should email all the community mods? Any user that signs up to the site, it should email all the admins?

I mean that the admin doesn't receive an email notification when a user registers to Lemmy. I have to refresh the webpage to see whether a user registered on my Lemmy instance.

How are you viewing what users are signed up? We don't have anything like that.

After installing my Lemmy instance, if a user wants to register, he/she completes the registration process and receives an email with a link to confirm the choice. After that, the admin must admit or deny the user registration request.

The admin (I, in this case) don't receive any notification via mail related to the completed registration process. So I have to refresh the community webpage to see whether there are new users' registration requests to admit or deny.

Am I wrong?

Okay this makes sense, what you really mean is you'd like an email to all admins after a user has completed a registration application.

Yes. The admin should receive an email with the notice related to a new registration request or better with a choice to admit or deny the user’s registration request into the email.

This should also be a site setting, application_email_admins

Should I edit inventory/hosts and add application_email_admins? Will it work right away?

This wont work because it hasnt been implemented yet.
