Can I Make PM Popup Default?

[chrisallen]

Hello:

When a new user registers, I'd like the question, "Pop up a box when you receive a Private Message?" set to "Yes" as the default.

Is there a way to do this?

Thanks for the help.

yes go into your admin cp templates section

open up your 'registeradult' template and your 'registercoppa' template and apply these changes to both:

_____________

Find:

PHP Code:

        <input type="radio" name="pmpopup" value="yes"> yes
        <input type="radio" name="pmpopup" value="no" checked> no 


Change it to:

PHP Code:

        <input type="radio" name="pmpopup" value="yes" checked> yes
        <input type="radio" name="pmpopup" value="no"> no

Hope that helps

Mist RULES!!!

my popup used to work and then it just stopped at the same time that my webmaster made the already read threads turn a different color. Any ideas what else to try?

Open your "headinclude" template.

Make sure this variable is present in that template:

$headnewpm

If not, add it below </style>

You need this present in headinclude for the PM popup to work.

[smess]

it is there but it is below:

<!-- End Preload Script -->

$headnewpm

Does it need to be directly below style?

[Dean C]

Post up your headinclude template

[Erwin]

Yes, put it below style - you have in under another javascript which may interfere with it actually. See if that works. But that extra bit of Javascript, which is not standard for vB (what hack is that) may interfere with it regardless since the $headnewpm calls up a javascript itself.

[smess]

Did not work, any other ideas? I am assuming you meant the style closest to the bottom of the template?

[Erwin]

Well, you need to get rid of the other javascript in the headinclude template which is interfering with your popup. Take that out and see if the popup works again.
