Thanks Krileon.

Correct me if I am wrong -
The auto email trigger that should fire after a profile update with conditions set should look something like this:

onAfterUserUpdate
Conditionals 1)[field name] Not Empty
2)[post_task] Equal To saveUserEdit (to cause it to trigger only the profile is updated, not during forgot login use)

Access Everybody, All Registered Users, Registered, Super Users.

Would there be complications if there were same triggers (ie to fire after update), but the content of the email is slightly different?

I am trying to send one to the user and another one to the admin user.

Would it be better if there is only one trigger but the admin gets the same copy via Cc?

Thanks for your help.

Your access should just be "Everybody". There's no need to have any of the others. Your conditionals look fine, but you'll need to test. If not working then remove the conditionals and try again. Conditional usage is simply trial an error.

With latest release there is an unlimited feature. This means you can send 2 emails or as many as you want per action. You'd simply have 1 with the to address as email substitution and 1 with the to address as your email address.

Thanks krileon.

The Everybody access was what I thought last night after i commented.
Shall try shortly.

Tried, but it doesn't seem to work still.
if the following condition is used, it fires after an update
[cb_renewalpaymentmode] Not Empty triggers user email after update

but will also fire when forgot login is used.

if the [post_task] Equal To saveUserEdit is used, it does not fire after the update.

Can a [cb_renewalpaymentmode] Equal To [insert drop down list options] be used
with [post_task]? - Update: Tried but also does not trigger.

What other conditions should be set? I really need to get this sorted out with a proper solution soon.

Checked source, task is stripped out. The below works though. It basically explodes forgot login based off post data.

[post_checkusername] Is Empty
[post_checkemail] Is Empty

Aside from that I don't know what more to tell you, sorry. You could also try adding a hidden input using a delimiter field and check that it's present.

The email notification triggers the correct emails after an update.

But the Re-direction trigger is incorrect
I have the Conditions set as

[cb_renewalpaymentmode] Does Not Contain --Please Select--
[post_task] Equal To saveUserEdit

Which fires the new password/login details but it does not fire the correct redirected message after the update.

If the [post_task] Equal To saveUserEdit is not used, it will display the re-directed page message and Not issue user with login details.

Any idea what other conditions should be set such that it will send the login details when Forgot Login is used, and the redirection message after the User Edits the profile?

Please see my above reply. I've provided the conditionals for it to work everywhere except Forgot Login. I've no other solution to provide, sorry. Task does nothing, because it's stripped by my parameter sanitize function so you can't use it as a conditional.
