WordPress Email on Activation

A few lines of code that you can add to your plugin to get it to email you when someone activates it.

register_activation_hook(__FILE__, 'tracking');

function tracking()
{
		
	$to = "you@email.com";
		
	$subject = 'Install of [Plugin Name] from '.$_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'];
	
	$message = '
	<html>
	<head>
	  <title>'.$subject.'</title>
	</head>
	<body>
	    <h1>'.$subject.'</h1>
	</body>
	</html>
	';
	
	$headers  = 'MIME-Version: 1.0' . "\r\n";
	$headers .= 'Content-type: text/html; charset=iso-8859-1' . "\r\n";
	
	$headers .= 'From: No Reply <me@mysite.com>' . "\r\n";
