Editing Default Forum Preference Settings

Kudos to Bruce, MadDog, Pegraso and the many other Mod Builders.

For new registration I want to edit the default preferences for:

• Notify me of replies to posts
• Notify me by email when I receive a Private Message

These radio buttons presently default to "No" (False) and -- for new registrations -- I want them to default to "Yes" (True).

I beliee that the code is here:

<% = strTxtYes %><input type="radio" name="replyNotify" value="True" <% If blnReplyNotify = True Then Response.Write "checked" %> />&nbsp;&nbsp;<% = strTxtNo %><input type="radio" name="replyNotify" value="False" <% If blnReplyNotify = False Then Response.Write "checked" %>

However, I am not sure how to modify this code so that only new registrations default to "Yes/True".

Help?

Thank you.

Thanks for the response dj air. I modified my register.asp code with your suggestion, but "Notify me of replies to posts" still defaults to "No" for a new member registration.

Here is my modified register.asp code:

<% = strTxtYes %><input type="radio" name="replyNotify" value="True" <% If blnReplyNotify = True OR lngLoggedInUserID = 2 Then Response.Write "checked" %> />&nbsp;&nbsp;<% = strTxtNo %><input type="radio" name="replyNotify" value="False" <% If blnReplyNotify = False AND NOT strMode = "reg" Then Response.Write "checked" %>

Any ideas?

Thanks again.

WooHoo! Worked like a charm this time! Thanks a million dj.

It would be a nice enhancement if there was an administrative option to change the defaults for new user registration.

Thanks again!
