Redirect to post after posting?

[LucasG]

SMF right now redirects to the forum the post you replied to is in, but not to the actual post. Is there a feature option that allows me to do this?

Welcome to SMF.

Go to Admin->Themes and Layout->Member Options. Go to each of the below links for your theme:

Reset default (guest) options for this theme
Reset all members' current options for this theme

Set the option for Return to topics after posting by default to on (check it). This will be applied to everyone. If you want to just do this for yourself, you can change it in your Profile.

Thank you very much.

Would you also happen to know where to change so that any type of members group does not have to go through the anti-spam protection to send a PM? Such as the captcha and anti-spam question?

[greyknight17]

Sure. Go to Admin > Security and Moderation > Anti-Spam tab and set Post count under which users must pass verification when sending personal messages to 0 (zero).

Question on this, is there a way to make this the default option for future users too? The solution works, but I don't want to have to do this again every time I get a new member...

Thanks for this. Just what I was looking for.
