I find that I need to not have new user emails sent to new users. Looks like sendNewUserEmails() is called in loginregister.php no matter what any other settings may say.

Any chance to make this configurable? My only other option is to stub out sendNewUserEmails() and remember to re-do that on every update.

Christopher,
It's something we may make configurable in the future, but for Joomla 1.5, it won't ever be a configuration option. We're not adding new features to the Joomla 1.5 release going forward. We'll simply be doing bug-fixes as necessary. There shouldn't be too many more releases of JFBConnect for Joomla 1.5 for that reason, which means you shouldn't have to stub it out many times.

There is a release coming up to stamp out some of the initial bugs found with the initial v4.3.3 release for Joomla 1.5, but after that, hopefully it would be rare to need a bug-fix release.

Hope that helps explain,
Alex

Sounds reasonable - in that case, I should implore you to include a per-file changelog for the few J1.5 updates you make, so I can manually apply them instead of a complete component re-install. That way, I know I'm patching fixes and not overwriting anything else. In that case, I'll know I can modify core code as necessary on our J1.5 platform and not worry.

For J2.5 (all of our new sites are 2.5, of course) we'll just play like our IQs are normal :-)

You can implore, but I'm going to let you know that a line-by-line changelog won't be produced. It's honestly very, very difficult with our build process to generate one since the line-numbers would have to be manually created.

With that said, we should be able to at least produce a list of what files have changed... with that, you can at least do a diff and make sure that you've re-implemented the changes in the new release in you're 'older' release. I won't remember to produce one each time, but it's something if you ask for in the forums, I'm sure we could generate after a day or so.

Of course, the other option is to simply document the changes you make on your site and then re-implement them after you upgrade.

Either way, glad you've moved on to J2.5. It's much better, and we're excited to be dropping J1.5 development in general. It'll be very nice to have a 3.x release out soon as well!

Thanks,
Alex
