How can I include the values from custom profile fields in the notification email for the newly registered user? This is as far as I got:

Date: [Date:Current]
First Name: [Profile:FirstName]
Last Name: [Profile:LastName]
Email: [Membership:Email]
Address: [Profile:Street]
City: [Profile:City]
State: [Profile:Region]
Zip: [Profile:PostalCode]
Country: [Profile:Country]
Telephone: [Profile:Telephone]
Fax: [Profile:Fax]
Cell: [Profile:Cell]
Website: [Profile:Website]

Everything else in format [Profile:VALUE] emails the exact same string [Profile:VALUE]. I looked at the DNN documentation, but everything is dated year 2005, and custom profile fields were introduced in v4.3, I believe.

Is there a way to access custom profile values from the \App_GlobalResources\GlobalResources.resx file to include them into the registration notification email, or I have to write something custom for that purpose?

Thank you,

This is an easy fix.  Go to the the site, and login as the host.  From there, go to your language settings.  Then find your language editor.  On this page, find the box with EMAIL_USER_ADMINISTRATOR_BODY.Text.  This box allows you to custom edit how the email will read.  When finished, scroll to the bottom of the page and click update.  Also, don't forget to test by registering to ensure that the email reads the way you want it to.

I have figured out the problem (half way) and here is the file and the code to modify, the only thing that's left is to figure out which .dll is the .vb file compiling into so I could upload the right one to the live site...

The file (in the source version) is DotNetNuke.Library/Components/Users/Profile/UserProfile.vb

The code to add for each new custom field (in this case it is CustomValue):

#Region "Private Constants"

        Private Const cCustomValue As String = "CustomValue" 'CustomValue is the name for the custom field
       
#End Region

#Region "Public Properties"

        ''' -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
        ''' <summary>
        ''' Gets and sets the CustomValue
        ''' </summary>
        ''' <history>

        ''' -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
        Public Property CustomValue() As String
            Get
                Return GetPropertyValue(cCustomValue)
            End Get
            Set(ByVal Value As String)
                SetProfileProperty(cCustomValue, Value)
                If Not ObjectHydrated Then
                    ObjectHydrated = True
                End If
            End Set
        End Property
       
#End Region

I hope someone would be able to give me a clue about dll...

Thanks,
