[How To?] Turn on Private Messages (PM) by default

[Raintek]

Hello,
I've problem with newly registred users. They have disabled Private Messages by default, we have to change that.

How can we do that?

Hi,

Admin Control Panel > Templates & Style (tab) > Templates (left colum) > YOUR THEME > Member Templates > member_register.

Search for:

<input type="checkbox" class="checkbox" name="receivepms" id="receivepms" value="1" {$receivepmscheck} />

and you could replace it with:

<input type="checkbox" class="checkbox" name="receivepms" id="receivepms" value="1" checked="checked" />

Will it work?

Edit: I can't find such a line in my mybb template.

Also, is it possible to turn it by default for everyone already? I think it can be done by SQL request?

Yes, that's the reason I'm telling it to you.

Please, copy/paste here your member_register template

Also, is it possible to turn it by default for everyone already? I think it can be done by SQL request?

True, with a SQL request you could turn it on to all users.
