Changing Private Message Defaults....

Is there anyone to change the default setting of a Private Message? Such as making:

Show Signature
Save a copy
Request Read Receipt

UNchecked?

Right now all those options have are checked each tiem a user sends a PM. Its been requested that they not be, as most have to uncheck them each time they send a PM.

Any suggestions?

Show Signature
This is configured according to user's signature settings so I dont suggest disabling it hard coded but if you still want to do here is how:
edit private.php, find:

PHP Code:

eval("dooutput(\"".gettemplate("priv_sendprivmsg")."\");"); 

before that add:

PHP Code:

$signaturechecked = ''; 

Save a copy

edit template priv_sendprivmsg find:

PHP Code:

<input type="checkbox" name="savecopy" value="yes" checked> 

replace as:

PHP Code:

<input type="checkbox" name="savecopy" value="yes"> 

Request Read Receipt
edit template priv_requestreceipt find:

PHP Code:

<br><input type="checkbox" name="pmreceipt" value="yes" checked> <b>Request Read Receipt:</b> Allows you to check whether your message has been read by the recipient. 

replace it as:

PHP Code:

<br><input type="checkbox" name="pmreceipt" value="yes"> <b>Request Read Receipt:</b> Allows you to check whether your message has been read by the recipient.

For the "Request Read Reciept" should it not be value="no"? There seems to be no change between the codes you posted.
