User Registration Information Notification Settings

Notification

Settings Type: Radio
Options: Enabled | Disabled

Email Subject

Settings Type: Text field
Options: Any email subject.
Default: [Site Name] Your username and password

This setting allows you to customize the email subject line. The subject line supports email tags (see below for an explanation). To avoid spam filters, keep them short and not sensational “You’re a winner!” will likely get flagged as spam.

Email Content Type

Settings Type: Drop-down/select
Options: HTML | Plain
Default: HTML

This setting determines whether the output of the email is plaintext or html. Some folks prefer plaintext emails, and this setting can also be used to check deliverability: if HTML is not working, try plaintext.

Preview Email

Settings Type:  Two buttons
Options: Preview Email | Send Test Email

Note: before using either option, be sure to save the settings using the “Save Changes” button at the bottom of the page.

The Preview Email option opens an email in a new browser tab or window, along with a drop-down menu to be able to toggle between recent donations to preview content from those donations as it relates to the sample email.

The Send Test Email option sends a test message to the main administrator email account for the site. (Which is set in the main WordPress settings at Settings > General > (Email Address)
