Hello
I have three question:
1. Users can create channels?
2. it is possible to remove the link from the user name?
3. Can I write pm after clicking on the icon of the user?
To check if there is a Mod_Security issue: AdminCP > Maintenance > Diagnostics > Problematic Webserver Modules > CLICK SUBMIT
If Mod_Security has "yes" that's where the issue lies.

Thanks for answer

Robert,
1. No, USERS can't create channels and that's not an option unless that user has access to the AdminCP. The reason is simple: Spammers and users could create virtually an unlimited amount, which would either crash the site, overload it or cause dB issues. It's a resource concern. Not to mention imagine 20 channels loading upon a refresh. Not wise. Only an Admin can do this.
2. That's not an option that I know of. It could be added I suppose but would be usergroup based. So if that usergroup has it disabled, all in that do.
3. I don't think the image is linked. You click the down arrow to the left of their name and send a PM.

Thanks for reply.
Can You tell me:
whether the user can be informed about incoming messages PM in the chat window?
Yes, I have installed this product.
where you can set it?
Probably under advanced or general settings. Go through them all and read all the 45092300332 (yeah, there is a lot of them) settings and if it's not in there, it's not an option.
