Hello!

OK I'm fairly new to all this myBB stuff but I'm picking it up fairly quicly as I was on (Dare I say it Undecided) PHPBB3 before lol.

OK I would like to know if there is any way to disable the "Hide Me"/Privacy option in the users profile?

I have looked around but not found anything
and would like to be able to get rid of this option if possible.

I don't like people being invisible it's un-natural lol. Toungue

If you have users already set to invisible you'll also need to run a SQL query in your database manager (usually phpMyAdmin) to change their settings:

UPDATE `mybb_users` SET `invisible` = '0' WHERE `invisible` = '1'
