[SOLVED] Custom Welcome Messages was created by fredc15
Hi,

I would like to have custom Welcome messages based on different selections from a field. Currently, I am using the standard message under Registration in CB Configurations?

Do you mean the welcome email or the registration header welcome message? For the email you can use substitutions as documented below.

www.joomlapolis.com/documentation/279-community-builder/tutorials/18353-using-substitutions-throughout-cb

If you mean the registration header you won't be able to customize it based off fields as the user hasn't registered yet nor are they logged in so there's nothing to substitute off of.

Hi,

I believe I am referring to the Welcome email which would be the first email the user receives after registration. I would like to have two or three different welcome emails based on a certain field selection. Example:

User Selects Option A from [cb_course]
- Welcome email "A" gets sent

User Selects Option B from [cb_course]
- Welcome email "B" gets sent

In that case you should be able to use IF substitutions for that. Example as follows.

[cb:if cb_course="A"]
OPTION A EMAIL
[cb:elseif cb_course="B"]OPTION B EMAIL[/cb:elseif]
[cb:else]ALL OTHER OPTIONS EMAIL[/cb:else]
[/cb:if]

See the bottom of the substitution below for IF substitution usage information.

Hi Thanks,

I tried this and I am actually sending out the welcome email after approval. So, I need this to work in the Pending email I suppose. I put the code into the Pending Email box in the configuration and I only am receiving the standard/stock email that says

Thank you for registering with the site's email.

Will this work for pending emails?

Yes, substitutions work fine in pending and welcome emails. Ensure users are registering through CB and not through Joomla.
