I was trying to customize the new users e-mail notification message for my site and got this when I sent a test message:

Date: The current date

Beginning of message ...

Password: Membership:Password}

... rest of message

I thought I had done it right, but I guess I put a curly brace instead of a bracket for the [MEMBERSHIP:PASSWORD].

Now, every time I try to add a dummy user as a test, I get the exact same message, even though I fixed it in the EMAIL_USER_REGISTRATION_ADMINISTRATOR_SUBJECT.Text  in Languages (the GlobalResources.resx file -- I have registration set to none), then deleted my temporary internet files, then replaced the GlobalResources.resx file with the default (I had saved the files from the installation on my local hard drive), then replaced all the user administration forms. Still, the same message ... even though the EMAIL_USER_REGISTRATION_ADMINISTRATOR_SUBJECT.Text   shows the default, uncustomized message.

Can anyone tell me why this message won't go away and how can I get it to go back to the one that's in the EMAIL_USER_REGISTRATION_ADMINISTRATOR_SUBJECT.Text box?

Thanks.

I think Mike hit it on the mark.  It sounds like the template is cached and the app restart will clear it.  There are many ways to clear the cache, and doing it through the Host Settings is just as good as the others.

Paul,

which version of DNN are you using? There have been issues in previous versions of the framework with the substitution, that have been ironed out lately, so you might need to upgrade to latest version. If you use customized version for the texts, you might need to upgrade the tokens included to meet standard version of the texts.
