Hi I''m relatively new to all this, so sorry if this is a daft question. I''ve got the acts_as_authenicated plugin working and have added the user activation extras - which is all fine but I can''t seem to get the activation mail sent. My mail setup in config/environment.rb works with other notifiers, so I was wondering if there''s anything I''m not adding to the signup method in the account controller? At the moment I''ve got: class AccountController < ApplicationController observer :user_observer ... def signup @user = User.new(params[:user]) return unless request.post? if @user.save redirect_back_or_default(:controller => ''/account'', :action => ''index'') flash[:notice] = "Thanks for signing up!" end end ... Would really appreciate any help if people have time Thanks Piers -- Posted via http://www.ruby-forum.com/.
