How do I send the password to a new user? I register a new user as admin, give him a username and insert the email. How do I tell them their password? What is the best procedure?

When you create a user you can set a password, so you can just email it to him and tell him to change this passowrd in his account area.

Erm, you mean email manually through an email account? O.k. I was wondering about an automatic within GL. There could be one check box "send password to user" for the admin.

I was wondering how to create several new users online during a seminar when participants tell me, "yes please singn me up"!

So I`d prefer the automatically created password to be sent to the new user when I press "save" and having ticked the check box "send password to user".

If you use the batch user import, all those new users will get the usual password email. That doesn't happen, however, when you create only one new user through the admin form.

Yes, I think a "send password email" checkbox would make sense. Please submit a feature request.
