    Hi UM Team

    I am trailing your plugin but I am having trouble with manually adding users via wordpress.

    When I add a user and create a random password the new user is sent UMs welcome email. But there is no mention of the password, or a direct login link for them to then update to a new password.

    I have tried the shortcodes {password}, {password_reset_link} and {account_activation_link}

    But none of these work. I have to manually send the the new user their password.

    is there a solution for this?

    Thank you

    Hi @robtucker168

    When you add a new user via WP Admin > Users, do you check the option “Send the new user an email about their account.” ?

    When you check that option, it should send an email to the user about their account with the link to a page to create a password.

    Regards,

    Hi Champ

    This seems to defeat the object of the email function of your Plugin. As this resorts to the default wordpress email. Which is not easily customised, ugly and the link takes the user to the default wordpress ‘set password’ page.
