    Hi,
    people can register to my website as subscribers. But as soon as they do they receive weird email from WordPress titled: Login details
    here is the text of the email:
    ‘Username: ———

    To set your password, visit the following address:

    https://xyz.com/wp-login.php

    For some reason, it says set up a password, but users do that already during registration. Also as you can see the link is not just for the website but also for wp-admin login.

    I have tried to disable this notification everywhere I could, I have also installed Manage email notification plugin and disabled it there. But still, people receive such email.

  • This is how wordpress allows users to set up passwords by default. If you disable the email your users will not be able to log into their accounts.

    Do you want people to not be able to signup at all? If so, go to
    WP-Admin → Settings → General
    Uncheck the box that says “Anyone can register”.

    Hope this helps.

    Mine is a membership website. I am using a custom plugin to create the registration forms. There is already an option to set password, even when the password set on the said form, WordPress sends the link to set a password. This Makes absolutely no sense to me.

    I see so users would get confused since you are using a membership plugin. Makes sense why you want to disable the default emails…

    I think you will need to add this code or something close to it into your custom plugin to disable the emails.

    remove_action( 'register_new_user', 'wp_send_new_user_notifications' );

    This article: might also help you to add the necessary code to your custom plugin: https://www.itsupportguides.com/knowledge-base/wordpress/wordpress-how-to-disable-new-user-notification-emails/

    By custom plugin, I meant a third-party plugin, sorry. I made a plugin from the function you sent a link for; it still sends the emails. Any way around? Also, the code you sent, can be added to functions.php? thanks.

    Which membership plugin are you using? It is probably best for you to contact their support. I can help you get to the right place at this point if you tell me which plugin you are using for membership features.

    I am not using a membership plugin, but a plugin to make registration form. I am using elementor pro, along with the plus addons.

    You will need to contact the developers of those plugins as they are pro/premium plugins and we do not support them here on wp.org.

    Yeah, I notified them, and haven’t heard back after four days. So I just replaced the plugin with my functions and a bit of custom work.

    RESOLUTION – DON’T EVEN CONSIDER BUYING “THE PLUSADDONS FOR ELEMENTOR”
