Remove "Allow members to email me" thing on registration

[wynnyelle]

How do I remove this, does anyone know? Is there a setting in permissions, or would it have to be done with a code?

You can edit it out in Register.template.php.  Do you want it to default 'yes' or 'no'?

[wynnyelle]

It should default to no.

In Register.template.php find this:

Code Select Expand



<dt><strong><label for="allow_email">', $txt['allow_user_email'], ':</label></strong></dt>
<dd>
<input type="checkbox" name="allow_email" id="allow_email" tabindex="', $context['tabindex']++, '" class="input_check" />
</dd>



Change to this:

Code Select Expand



<!--dt><strong><label for="allow_email">', $txt['allow_user_email'], ':</label></strong></dt-->
<dd>
<input type="hidden" name="allow_email" id="allow_email" tabindex="', $context['tabindex']++, '" class="input_check" />
</dd>



Didn't check it, but should remove the option, and submit hidden value 'no' for all registrations.
