I'd like to replace it with my site name...</p> <p>I don't mind the body of the message too much, although I would like to alter that if possible. Surely It would make more sense if it read 'to activate your account' as opposed to user?</p> <p>Thank you for your time</p> <p>==========<br /> EXAMPLE<br /> ==========</p> <p>SUBJECT:</p> <p>"[WordPress] Activate *then the username is inserted here (this works)*"</p> <p>BODY:</p> <p>"To activate your user, please click the following link:</p> <p>*link to activate the user is inserted here (this works)*</p> <p>After you activate, you will receive *another email* with your login." </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/activation-email-showing-wordpress-in-subject-and-not-site-name#post-95466 Mon, 26 Nov 2012 00:17:57 +0000 Chris Hajer 95466@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>If you're not using BuddyPress and you added that code, the code would never be processed, so I can see what that did not help you.</p> <p>Can you explain the exact issue you're having? Post the actual text of the messages or email addresses or screenshots if you can. If you post a link to your form and we can register there to see for ourselves, that will help too. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/activation-email-showing-wordpress-in-subject-and-not-site-name#post-95299 Sun, 25 Nov 2012 08:20:03 +0000 hexdigital 95299@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I don't have buddypress installed and I seem to be getting this issue.</p> <p>I tried adding that code to my theme functions I'm still getting this problem.</p> <p>Any ideas? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/activation-email-showing-wordpress-in-subject-and-not-site-name#post-89345 Fri, 09 Nov 2012 16:22:04 +0000 David Peralty 89345@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Glad you figured it out.

If I do something like "Forgot my Password", it contains the correct site name. Any idea what might be causing this? </p>
