Welcome Email After Moderation

[Carrfixr]

I would like to change the wording for the email that gets sent after a new user is approved from moderation. I looked for it but for some reason it is eluding me.
Thanks in Advance

I believe you will find the answer under this link. Check Mark's response. https://www.vbulletin.com/forum/foru...l-verification

Thanks for the reply. That info is for the user email verification email. I am looking for the email that gets sent after the moderator approves being able to post.
It does get me closer, just need the right phrase to search for

I didn't know an email automatically went out once a user has been approved to post. I thought it was just when they registered.

There is actually a last email after validation... here are the screen shots of the process

The welcome email?

Something like .....Setting_welcome_mail_title

I think if you search for welcome mail in the phrases you should find it.

Well done. We don't moderate new members that's why I didn't recognise it, but do moderate their first post, just to make sure they are not spammers.

Having said that our spam has dropped 99% since moving to v5. Might even be able to take moderation off.

I went the first 6 months with no moderation. The last 2 weeks i started getting spammed, so now i check them out before being accepted. I did look into moderating the first post as you mentioned, but that involved making another user group and seemed more complicated. I did attempt it once per Waynes instructions on another thread and it shuttled members around, and the avatars were lost. I ended up deleting the new user group and had to do a user refresh to get things back..
