System Emails 🎬

System emails are automated emails that are sent out to members, such as account activation or password resets. Manage these emails in the Communication Center > System tab.

The following system emails are available and can be customized:

• Account Activation: This email is sent to new members after registration. It includes their unique activation link. This email is sent automatically after a member finishes registration. These links will remain active for 7 days. If a prospective member's activation link has expired, you can send an activation reminder which will generate a new link for them. See below for more details.
• Account Creation: Sends to members who are created inside the Mod Tools (as single account creation or a batch upload). This email includes the member's username, email, and a link to create a password for their new account. The email is sent automatically after the account has been created.
• Account Update Notification: This email is sent to users when they change their email address, password, or username. This email will alert users to the change made to their account and prompt them to contact the community moderator if they did not make this change.
• Activation Reminder: Sends to members who have signed up, but have not activated their account.
  This email does not send out automatically. If you want to send out activation reminder emails, you must go to Communication Center > System. Then, select Send Reminder from the Actions drop-down for the Activation Reminder email.
  NOTE: The reminder will be sent to all members whose status is "Activated False"
• Birthday Email: This email is sent to a community member on the occasion of their birth date.  A moderator must enable this email in the Communication Center and the message can be customized. For the system to recognize the date and you collect...

• Suspicious Upload: If the antivirus software detects that a user has uploaded a virus, this email will automatically be sent to that person. We do not allow a virus to upload, so if a user attempts to do this, nothing will upload. This email will notify the user why nothing was uploaded.
• System Test: This is used by Fuel Cycle's R&D team to test emails as the community is being initially built out.

To edit an email, click the name. System email composition is similar to campaigns. You can select a template and customize the messaging as needed.

Some of the system emails have required variables. For example, you must include the variable for the activation link in the Account Activation email. If you attempt to save your changes without that variable, you will receive an error message. If a system email requires a variable, it will be noted above the Text Editor.

When done customizing the system email, click the Save button at the bottom of the page.
