I will post the original thread here for simplicity:
#1 (me) - I would like to setup the red marked options as default for all new members (see image below). As per another posting, I did change the template "modifyoptions" to checked (for the desired radio buttons) but new members still default to the values seen on the image. Any suggestions?
#2 (Steve Machol) - You need to make these changes to the registeradult template.
#3 (me) - Yes, I figured that out after posting. But... the problem is that I've setup a non-vB script to sign-up new members (paid membership). This script adds a user / email directly to the vB tables therefore users don't go through the vB registration process. Later on, they can go and change the settings through usercp but I'd like to have those specific options default to those values.
Given that, is there a way I can make vB default this specific options to my desired values? php changes perhaps?
#4 (Steve Machol) - You'll need to ask about this over at the hacking site - vbulletin.org.
