Need some assistans to find correct variable or modification

[Winder]

Hi all (my first post here)
Yes i have searched and searched for answer to my question but the topics i have found is modificated for coppermine 133 and as far as i understand this modification is not supported no longer in 149.

Im looking for the variable to show password in the administrator notification/activation email

I have looked in the eng language php-file and found

Code Select Expand

$lang_register_approve_email = <<<EOT
A new user with the username "{USER_NAME}" has registered in your gallery.

In order to activate the account, you need to click on the link below or copy and paste it in your web browser.

<a href="{ACT_LINK}">{ACT_LINK}</a>

EOT;

I know that many people think that its not proper to have this information in this email to the admin but in my case it would be very suitable for me. I thought the variable was {USER_PASSWORD} or something like this. I have tried several variables but the registration test mail i have done only result in empty space. Shooting totally blanks here? But now i have searched and tried out for so long time so i really need some help from you guys.

My hope is to have it like:

Code Select Expand

$lang_register_approve_email = <<<EOT
A new user with the username "{USER_NAME}" with password: ???$PASSWORD??? has registered in your gallery.

In order to activate the account, you need to click on the link below or copy and paste it in your web browser.

<a href="{ACT_LINK}">{ACT_LINK}</a>

EOT;

Check this :
http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=37086.msg175005#msg175005

It will help you to get the idea
- you need to add something like this {USER-PASSWORD} =>$password, to $template_vars under register.php (line 314~317)

Thank you Sami
Works like a charm, i even implemented the extra function you redirected me to regarding the email adress retrive and force users to put in their fully name.

Now there is only 2-3 issues left before i can go live with my album, but they will i take in a different topic
I think it will be above this :-) topic.

Great job guys

Had to post a new one cause i did not have th option to modify my previous post.
I have scaned the forum for some time now. Even if i am a newbi i have seen that there are a lot of suggestions to modify the inside code. which in my eyes will be a nightmare when a new release will come. Is it har to build plugins that does that job instead sience as i have undertand the plugins most of them will be stright forward to install for a new release. I can see for my self that i will have several days of recoding and posting if a new version will be releasted, all this modifications you have done to tune the coppermine to the best.

This was just more of a thought why there are so many "hacks" out here instead of concentrating on making plugins. Im not a coder so maybe thats the issue that it is not possible to build plugins for serten things. The onlu thing i have heard from great programmers is that everything is possible that why im wondering 

Friendly regards

I'll check if this could be done as a plugin
