Registration Defaults

[Automated]

Hi All,

I have done a registration hack and i am quite pleased with it , but what i want to know is;

Is there something i can add/modify that will let me specify the default settings for new user registration?

I send an Automatic PM on registration welcoming them, but the default is that new users dont accept PM's.

It is things like this i want to change.

Thanks in advance for your help!

Open up the "registeradult" template:

For example, with PMs:

<tr>
	<td bgcolor="{firstaltcolor}"><normalfont><b>Enable Private Messaging?</b></normalfont><br>
	<smallfont>Allows people to send Private Messages to you</smallfont></td>
	<td bgcolor="{firstaltcolor}"><normalfont>
		<input type="radio" name="receivepm" value="yes" checked> yes
		<input type="radio" name="receivepm" value="no"> no
	</normalfont></td>
</tr>

You can edit which one is ticked here.

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

Just move the word checked from the yes line to the no line.

If you don't want to give a new member a choice at all, remove the whole code above, and replace with:

		<input type="hidden" name="receivepm" value="yes">

The user won't get a choice. Change that to "no" if you wish.

Do this for any or all of your options.

Erwin - What query would you use to set all users to "recieve emails from administrator" to yes?
