 * Hello
 * [global_user_firstname] in the ‘New User – Post-registration Email’ doesn’t seem
   to be working? [global_user_email] works, but not the names, any ideas how to
   fix?

 * Hi [@claschy](https://wordpress.org/support/users/claschy/),
    Thanks for your
   message.
 * I’ve just tested this and it does appear to be working for me: [https://www.dropbox.com/s/t8jgqlj7e5nnfvb/Screenshot%202016-12-16%2008.31.16.png?dl=0](https://www.dropbox.com/s/t8jgqlj7e5nnfvb/Screenshot%202016-12-16%2008.31.16.png?dl=0)
 * Are you using the latest version of the plugin?
    Are you creating WordPress users
   via the admin or via another method?
 * Thanks,
    Jack
