turn off new user registration alerts?

    I feel like a goof, but I just upgraded to version 2.6.3 from version 2.2.1, and I am finding that any time a new user registers herself, I get an email notification as the owner of the blog.

    I don’t want to receive email notifications every time someone registers as a new user — can I turn that off somewhere? I can’t seem to find an option for that on any control panel.

    Many thanks for advice!

    Easiest way might be, set up a filter in your email (whatever email software you use). Filter the messages that have that same subject line, and send them to your Trash, or your Archives, or a special email box.

    Yeah, but since I create these websites for a living, I also need to do this for my clients, and I’d rather find a wordpress-based solution. But I appreciate the creative thinking, dgold!

    This worked for me.

    Edit the pluggables.php file in the includes directory.

    remove or comment out the following lines:

    $message  = sprintf(__('New user registration on your blog %s:'), get_option('blogname')) . "\r\n\r\n";
	$message .= sprintf(__('Username: %s'), $user_login) . "\r\n\r\n";
	$message .= sprintf(__('E-mail: %s'), $user_email) . "\r\n";

	@wp_mail(get_option('admin_email'), sprintf(__('[%s] New User Registration'), get_option('blogname')), $message);

    Registration works as it should, but you won’t get an admin email notification.

    Install the “Register-Plus” Addon.. ADDON PAGE

    The check box is at the bottom of the Register Plus admin page in your dashboard. It’s easy, and has all the options you need. Even image security.
    GL!!
