how to enable Sig & Non-Email subscription by default while posting new thred?

Sigs are enabled once a user makes a sig, it will automatically show in their posts.

To set the default subscription to non-email, you need to do this template edit... in member_register, find:

<option value="0" {$no_subscribe_selected}>{$lang->no_auto_subscribe}</option>
<option value="1" {$no_email_subscribe_selected}>{$lang->no_email_subscribe}</option>
<option value="2" {$instant_email_subscribe_selected}>{$lang->instant_email_subscribe}</option>

replace with:

<option value="0">{$lang->no_auto_subscribe}</option>
<option value="1" selected="selected">{$lang->no_email_subscribe}</option>
<option value="2">{$lang->instant_email_subscribe}</option>

That will have it selected for new users, then to change it for current users, run this query in phpMyAdmin:

UPDATE `mybb_users` SET `subscriptionmethod` = '1';

where is this template file located in default installation?
