I'm looking in to making receiving emails for PM's selected by default.
I've done my searches and found this thread:
http://community.mybb.com/thread-165698.html
It is the only thread at all that I can find about 1.8 - that template changed very significantly from 1.6 so those posts are useless. I've even tried Google with last month and last year time settings on...
But that one solution in that thread doesn't work for me; the box still remains unticked.
How may I tick it by default?
Also, if I was to remove that option altogether by commenting out the selection box, how would I make it to MyBB assumes it was ticked when the registration is submitted? That part isn't the easiest to explain.
Thank you!
as suggested there, replacing
{$pmnotifycheck} with
checked="checked" should still work
<input type="checkbox" class="checkbox" name="pmnotify" id="pmnotify" value="1" checked="checked" />
instead of using
comment tags to remove the codes, you can use
input type="hidden"
<input type="hidden" class="checkbox" name="pmnotify" id="pmnotify" value="1" checked="checked" />
Hi, I've definitely put that, rebuilt my cache, even loaded the page in a different browser, but it is still unselected.
My template with these edits looks like:
<html>
<head>
<title>{$mybb->settings['bbname']} - {$lang->registration}</title>
{$headerinclude}
<script type="text/javascript" src="{$mybb->asset_url}/jscripts/validate/jquery.validate.min.js?ver=1804"></script>
</head>
<body>
{$header}

make sure you are editing the templates of the right theme.. may i have your forum url...

It's just the default. The only other "theme" (or at least, has it's own templates) is GoMobile, but of course that does not apply to desktops (:
Thanks
