PM default settings

[L8 APEX]

I have to answer quite a few PM's each day. I would like to streamline this system. I have to make about five clicks to send each reply. It could either be done by setting personal prefs or default settings. Currently I have to unclick all of the checked boxes and select no confirmation. I think that is three check boxes and a pop up. It sure would make my day easier not to fiddle with those and just send the PM's back:bows

In my testing its 4 clicks

One click to open
one click to reply
one click to submit
one to cancel the read reciept ...

Which of these would you suppose I hack the forum to eliminate ??

Try it agian the options are still checked and asks for confirmation. I think confirmation should be down in the options not a pop up. Most importantly is having to scroll down to uncheck the options.

I guess the only options I need to uncheck is signature in post and copy to sent folder. The html or whatever doesn't matter to me. I would like to open, reply, send. Guess that is kind of like Email eh' maybe I should just disable PM's. I don't know if anyone really needs them:confused:

Thanks for the quick response IO:bows . Now if the sig box becomes unchecked that would be a plus;) . I can deal with the way it is now you have seaved me time and hassle:tu:

You don't know how many PM's I have replied to wishing it could be changed. But I said nothing for the longest time now. Thanks again, I will share some of my new found free time with the less fortunate. Which will probably be myself or Bobby:D

As I said in the PM that I just sent

There are dozens of little tweaks that have been done or requested over the years to this software. Currently the forum software is 2 upgrades behind, because i havent had time to do the upgrade and reinstall/fix all the tweaks.

Soon there will be a compelling upgrade, a new version that MUST be installed and I intend to install the next upgrade completely clean - pristine as if it came from the factory.

All the tweaks will be gone - It takes 8-10 hours of coding/hacking for each upgrade now in order to install an upgrade and put all the hacks and tweaks back in ... I dont have the time or patience for that any longer.

A small list of the hacks/ tweaks that have been done - That may or may not be redone

Ill likley add back some of them over time - I need to find a way to document/automate the process... There is a thing called the Hack Tracking Log but I have to look at it to see how it works ....
