Something is wrong with your group permissions. Show a screenshot ACP -> Users & Groups -> Groups -> any affected group -> Users and Permissions

I checked the permission.

I tried to PM myself with the testing account and it worked with no problem, so have you actually checked "user's permission" in ACP Edit User? Or did you mean group permissions in the 1st post?

I have no changed anything in the user's permission. Have you tried private messaging other members?
You didn't answer my my question. Anyways, you can PM me a temporary admin account so that I can check few things.

Sorry. I didn't understand the question.
I was speaking about this: https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B6pgReiH...p=drivesdk These are user permissions/options which you haven't checked yet (as you said in 1st post), you only checked group permissions.

Every new user has all these options disabled because your theme lacks them on the registration page. They should be either:
a) readded
b) added as hidden options with default value 1

How do I make sure that new members will have those options checked?
Well, using the test account, I was able to pm another member.

Edit: Was gonna post an answer to your question, but I shut my computer off already... gimme a minute

UPDATE TABLE_PREFIX.users
SET receivepms = 1;

UPDATE TABLE_PREFIX.users
SET receivefrombuddy = 0;

Type that into your db manager replacing TABLE_PREFIX. with the actual prefix (mybb_ by default)
