    Posted: 26 January 2004 at 4:08pm

I searched the forum before posting this.

I know that you can turn on/off the email notification of forum/topics watched.

But, what I would like to do is turn this off for everyone except the admin/moderators.

The number of emails going on on my forum at way too much for each member to be notified of the new topics etc.

But I do need the topics/forum notifications emailed to the admin/moderators only.

I am really new at ASP and would really appreicate any help on what file I need to alter and what I need to change so that I can have the admin/mods receive the email notifications.

Thanks in advance for any help.

Without having the code in front of me i cant explain it in detail, but what you could do is turn the email off. then in common.asp find the variable that contains the settings for turning on/off emails.

Then towards the bottom do a IF statement to turn it on for admins and moderators.

Example:

If blnAdmin = True OR blnModerator = True Then
         'Turn email settings on
End If

just the common.asp in the forum.

But you need to find the variables that contain the email settings.
