Had a search on the forums but couldn't find an obvious answer to this...

I'd like to edit the ''Registration Completed Successfully!' message which appears when users register. I would like to add a line that informs the user to add forums@xxx.com to their email safe list, as it may otherwise go to their junk mail folder.

How would I go about doing this?

Many thanks in advance!

Yes this is certainly possible and very simple (one you know how).

You'll need to open [INSTALLDIR]\Globalization\en-US\Resources.xml within notepad or plain-text editor.

Once opened simply search for the text "Registration Completed Successfully!" (without the quotes).

You'll see this is just a XML file. You can modify the text in this file. The item your looking for is on line 344.

You can find all UI text within the Resources.xml file making it very easy to modify text within the UI. You can also customize the email's sent from your board by modifying the Emails.xml file also within the [INSTALLDIR]\Globalization\en-US\ directory.

There are a few considerations when editing text within XML. Take a look at the "XML Encoding & Special Characters" section at : http://docs.instantasp.co.uk/instantforum/creatingalanguagepack.html

I hope this helps a little

May I make a suggestion that it is possible to edit these standard messages (only the most popular ones admins wish to edit) through the Admin CP...

Cheers!
