    If you include a password in your registration form and you have enabled moderated registration, you can’t send the password when the user is activated. WP hashes passwords so the only time you’ll have a plain text password available to send to the user is when the password is created. In the default configuration with moderated registration, this is when the user is activated, so the default email content reflects that. If you are adding password to the registration process, then you need to send it when the user registers (if you send it at all).

    I can’t find the option to turn “moderated registration” off, can you explain to me were i can find this option? I read a other post that said by turning this option off, that the option to activate accounts manual disappears…

    In the plugin’s options tab, uncheck “Moderate registration” to turn it off.

    Yeah that did it, i see the password now in the email that’s been auto-sent. But now i want to activate accounts manual, because I need to check te people who registrate… How do i change these settings and see the password in the email?

    Perhaps you didn’t understand my original answer.

    If you have included a password field during the registration process and registration is moderated (requires approval), then you need to change the default email content in the emails tab so that the password is sent when the user registers.

    And were do I need to change it to? I need to approve all my registrations, and the password needs to be send after I approve…

    I can’t delete the password out of my default email…

    Then you can’t allow users to set their own password at registration. WordPress (not the plugin) hashes passwords. Once it is hashed, you can’t unhash it. So if the user is creating their own password when they register, you won’t have the plaintext version of it to send them when you approve the user.

    The way for what you are describing to work is to go back to what the plugin’s default set up is – creating a random initial password for the user which they can change when they log in.

    Thnx, that helped! I deleted options to set their own password, and the rest worked out great!

    Hello,

    This message is written using an automatic translator. I hope you will come to understand my request

    I consulted the various messages and I can not find a solution to a problem user to record who completed the registration form.

    This one is receiving an email confirmation of their registration but there is no “password” automatically generated.

    As administrator I get an email with a link for validation.

    This link does not allow me to reach and activate the user account and the validation is denied.

    I followed the recommendations above the support by unchecking ‘moderate inscription’ and I said well “password” in the E-Mail tab.

    Thank you in advance for your help.
