In Classic, I liked the level of details in the email the admin would receive whenever there was a new registration:
Public Name:
Login Name:
Email:
IP Address:
Member Number:
Child:

Is there a way to get that level of detail in Threads? If not please consider it a suggestion.

In Threads, all you get is:
A new user has registered at mydomain.com. To approve this account, please visit
http://www.mydomain.com/ubbthreads/admin/membermanage.php?returntab=1

With unlimited storage email accounts, it's a good way to keep record of old accounts and people you might not have in your CP.

Great to hear.

Besides a few little details like this, there ain't much else I miss from Classic.

<snicker> most of us testers are from classic, and threw just about every classic feature we could think of at Rick in alpha :flex:™

Where do we set the address for the 'recipient' of the registration emails?

I've been going around in circles trying to find it.
I can see that it's not Primary Settings >> Board Email Address

Just below that expand Advanced Options and you will see:

Main Administrator User Id?
This is considered your Super Admin. Other admins cannot edit or change this user. All welcome private messages will come from this user.

Is that what you're looking for?

Ehr, that's not the spot.

As an admin, you can set it in your own preferences (under my stuff).

Notify me when a new user registers on the forum. in the Moderator & Administrator Preferences section.

Main admin ID is basicly, well, a main admin ID smile

There seems to be a problem with this option. One of our Admins has their option "Notify me when a new user registers on the forum." set to No. However they still receive the email when a new user registers on the message board.

We are using version 7.2.2.

Is there something else we should be doing so that they do not get these emails?

ok, great!

Because I did have a look at the code to check it out, and could find no errors in there.

So did the additional level of detail make it into 7.3?

Email Address: bla@bleh.com
Display Name: SD-UNiT
IP Address: from.hell.xx.yy

Would be nice to also include log-in name, but still better than what it was:
