This modification is in the archives.
This hack will send any new users a welcome PM. This will work in vB3 Gold and probably RC versions as well. I will give support for this hack (if it's needed) in this thread.
If you upgraded your vB version and you are using a hack version prior to July 8, 2004: If you have upgraded vB and your hack version is not July 8, 2004 or newer, run this query (there was a problem with the prior instructions):
This hack was last updated: Sun December 5, 2004 at 23:00 PDT This update has a new on/off switch. Update includes: vB 3.0.2/3.0.3 instructions To install follow the instructions in the attached file. Installation Information Files to Edit: 1 Queries to Run: 11 Upgrade Instructions: Open ./register.php and remove the hack (to find the old hack see below). And re-add the updated hack found in the Installation Instructions file. To upgrade to the December 5th release, you'll need to run these three queries:
Uninstall Instructions: Run the queries in this post, and then remove the hack in register.php (see below). Look for:
To configure it after installation, go to: Admin CP --> Options --> vBulletin Options --> User Registration Options Attached is a screen grab of the PM by default and text instructions. If the file appears corrupt, please see this post. Download Now Only licensed members can download files, Click Here for more information. Screenshots

Can we get a screenshot of what the pm would look like?
 And could you please put the code in a text file for anyone that wants that?

Thank you, sir.
I was going to do a hack like this myself, but had to stop and remember that I'm an idiot and wouldn't have known where to add this. Clicks install! No members have liked this post.

Really nice hack and very friendly to the new users that doesn't know what to do after.
This is your hack, but is it possible to change the welcome text and also translate it to another language, Spanish in my case See Ya No members have liked this post.

Just translate the variable $pmtext and it will change. If you want to use the user's username, you can use $username, and if you want their user ID, use $userid. When you edit the message, make sure you leave it outdented like it is in the default state otherwise your PM will look very strange  I do plan to make these things in the phrase system (or admin cp) in a later version, but I'll need to do some exploration of how do it.

Is there a way to set this up to test it without a new registration?

That's ok, I just realized that I can check my sent message folder after the next new registration. See? I warned you I was an idiot.

Well, I'll just have to hope the next new user saves the message.
Congratulations on your first hack! An excellent job!
