Hi all. Is there any way to disable the default Wix sends to new users?
I’ve been able to do a custom sign-up form and process including emails in order to support multilingual and more. But the defauls email still gets sent, and it’s only in English and links to the English language site. Any workarounds or ways to change that email?

It is the same when you use other Wix Apps like Wix Forms too, another reason why it is better to create your own user input forms so that you have complete control.
@givemeawhisky actually I don’t think this is correct in this case. I am using a custom sign up form and added my own email confirmation process. But once the member is approved, Wix sends an email to the new member regardless. This can apparently not be changed, and is what the feature request Heath mentioned is for.
@deleteduser I AM using custom member area + forms as described there. I also added email verification though as described in other articles (and therefore set approval to “manual”). But when calling wixUsers.approveByToken(token) after I receive that email, it automatically sends a welcome email to the user. I’m not using any non-custom form at all.
Yes, you are using the Wix Users API and the register function through the backend and that will send a confirmation email to the user after they are approved as a site member.

@givemeawhisky exactly. and https://www.wix.com/corvid/reference/wix-users-backend.html#approveByToken doesn’t actually mention that.
It cannot currently be changed and is the topic of the feature request Heath provided above.
This is quite unfortunate behavior. Should be quite easy for Wix to provide an option to disable this…
After 2 years, did Wix fixed this horible behavior of send welcome “fixed” email ?? How come Wix couldnt’ provide any way to disable or customize that?
