Answer 1

You could use the user_created event.

Haven't tested this but you could create a local plugin

Create a local folder

/local/newuser/

Create events.php

/local/newuser/db/events.php

Paste this into events.php

defined('MOODLE_INTERNAL') || die();

$handlers = array (
    'user_created' => array (
        'handlerfile'      => '/local/newuser/lib.php',
        'handlerfunction'  => 'local_newuser_user_created',
        'schedule'         => 'instant',
    ),
);

Create a lib.php file

/local/newuser/lib.php

Paste this into lib.php

defined('MOODLE_INTERNAL') || die();

function local_newuser_user_created($user) {
    global $DB;
    
    $body = '';

    // Original fields.
    foreach ($user as $field => $value) {
        $body .= $field . ' = ' . $value . "\n";
    }
    
    // Custom fields.
    $sql = "SELECT f.id, f.name, d.data
            FROM {user_info_field} f
            LEFT JOIN {user_info_data} d ON d.fieldid = f.id AND d.userid = :userid";
    $customfields = $DB->get_records_sql($sql, array('userid' => $user->id);
    foreach ($customfields as $customfield) {
        $body .= $customfield->name . ' = ' . $customfield->data . "\n";
    }
    
    // Send the email to the admin user
    $admin = get_admin();
    $subject = get_string('newuser');
    email_to_user($admin, $admin, $subject, $body);

    return true;
}

Finally create a version.php

/local/newuser/version.php

And paste this

defined('MOODLE_INTERNAL') || die();

$plugin->version = 2014012901; // Plugin version.
$plugin->requires = 2013051402; // Moodle version.
$plugin->component = 'local_newuser'; // Full name of the plugin (used for diagnostics).

Then in Moodle go to site admin -> notifications to add the code. Then create a user and the admin should receive an email :)

You could also look at this plugin.

Answer 4

The function on your link start like that:
function send_confirmation_email($user) {

The "$user" variable it's an object and should have everything you need:
$user->firstname, $user->lastname, $user->phone1, $user->phone2, etc.. check out the data base table mdl_user.
