Email notification to Admin of new registration

(1/1)

king kratos:
I have searched and cannot find a setting to change or a topic on this forum regarding this issue of mine.

I have selected the option to receive email notification of new registrations as the Admin, but my Global Moderators are receiving these emails as well. They are not Admins and shouldn't be receiving these emails. Is there some setting to change this or is this supposed ot be happening?

I am completely missing this permission then. Under Registration>Settings, I have a check mark in the box for "Notify administrators when a new member joins". Under the permissions for Global Moderator (actually the permissions for all user groups), I do not see any setting that has anything to do with receiving emails when a  new member joins, let alone having any group act as "Administrator".

I do understand that permissions control every interaction in an SMF forum. However, with all of my experience with SMF (admin/own two installs, installed, configured, and modded 15 others, am running multiple personal, non-published mods, and provide support for my friends, family, church, and clients for their installs) I cannot say that I have ever seen a permission regarding this. In fact, I never would have known about it if I hadn't promoted a member of mine to Global Moderator. I have always restricted moderation to board only and have never had a GM for security reasons. However, this person I trust completely and they deserved to have extra privileged.

So, that leaves me with my question. If this is based on a permission and I cannot find the permission anywhere, what is my next step? I want to know every time someone joins, but he doesn't.

Please advise.

it's not a specific permission...   it's either the "admin forum" permission or the "manage membergroups" permission, I think....
