userfields empty in mail when register

[holanpan7]

VirtueMart 3.6.10 10211
Joomla! 3.9.14

Hello,

First of all Happy new Year.

I tested on Fresh install with no overides.

The problem is that when someone registers, the e-mail sent to both the vendor and the customer is missing the adress fields.
The username and displayed name are sent but the e-mail, adress fields, phone numbers etc... are empty.


I var_dump ($this->userFields) and it shows 'value' => null for each userfields.

Is this a new behaviour? or a bug?

Thanks for your help.

Best regards

Is this a new behaviour? or a bug?

A new behaviour. If I remember correctly, the reason was that private data should not be sent by email, because it's not necessary for registration.
I think it was discussed after a report that the registration email contained the password (which is a possible Joomla configuration option).
I will probably remove the "Address:" language string in the emails in the next VM version, in order to avoid confusion.

Thanks for your reply jjk,

I think it will be better to leave the choice as an option like in joomla.
