Hi,

i found this passage in Users.inc.php:

# --------------------------------------------------------
# Sends a validation email to the user.
#
global $IN, $CFG;
$to = $IN['Email'];
$from = $CFG['db_admin_email'];
$subject = language('USER_VALEMAILSUB');
$message = print_page('email-validate.txt', $user, array('return_as_string' => 1));
mailto($to, $from, $subject, $message);
}

My question now:
Is it possible to send a user manually a validation-email with all the necessary fields via global?
e.g. <%send_validation_mail_now%>

Thanks in advance!

This is in PHP I'm assuming? If so, the PHP frontend of LinksSQL doesn't actually support 'globals' as such. You would need pure PHP code;

i.e


This would need to go into the template itself, so that it run at compilation time. I'm not sure if the above will work though, as my PHP knowledge (generally, and in LinksSQL) is a little rusty, as I havn't had to program any for over 4 months

ok! but i need it in perl! no php!

Is there no possibility to send an email via global?

If you have the email option turned on in Setup > Email Options (can be User Options), then it should send out validation emails automatically.

yepp, i know :-)
But i need to manage it manually!

Is that possible? Something like:

GLOBAL:
# globalname sendmail
# This global sends an email to the logged in user
# template = email-text.txt

TEMPLATE:
# email-text.txt (as template)
# hello <%Name%>
# Your email is <%email%>
# Your Validation code is <%Validation%>
# cuu

START SENDING WITH:
<%sendmail%>
