  • Owner set to nishitlangaliya
  • Status changed from new to assigned

The text is missing some articles. Should be something more like this:

The username and a link to reset the password will be mailed to this email address.


Marking this good-first-bug as 'claimed'.

  • Milestone changed from Awaiting Review to 4.9

As discussed in today's ticket scrub, the message should be "The username and a link to set the password will be mailed to this email address." (set instead of reset, since the new user doesn't really reset their password)

#8 @flixos90

  • Resolution set to fixed
  • Status changed from assigned to closed

In 41064:

Multisite: Fix a user-facing message when adding a new site with a new user as admin.

Previously the message would falsely state that the username and password would be sent to the new user. It is actually a link to set the password that they receive in the email.

Props nishitlangaliya.
Fixes #41169.
