When there is a new registration pending does some get emailed to let them know that its there? I think I got one when I installed this but I dont seem to be getting the ones that I setup to test. Who gets them? Just the server email address or do all the admins get the emails?
But I am setting up a privite board so everything is set to allow them to setup and account but they have to be approved to have it activated. I thought that the admin or admins would be notified that a pending account was made.
no, admins are not sent an e-mail. They just need to check their Admin options on a regular basis. If you have Restrict Registration turned on, then if there are users who need to be approved, it will show a reminder next to the Admin Options link on the main forum pages.
