Okay, this is unusual, and I was hoping someone could shed light on this.
I sent myself this email through the email manager:
In the email some phrases work others don't.
However, $vboptions[bbtitle], $vboptions[bburl], $vboptions[webmasteremail] do not work, though $username and $activateid do work.
The email will literally say:
Why is this? How can I fix it?
Oddly, I create a new test account. The exact same email was sent automatically and it works. Why does this email work when the site sends it automatically, but it doesn't work when I use the email manager?
