PM Notify via email by default

[Bullseye]

Just looked in some of the seemingly obvious places, could not find a file with the relevant parts to edited, I have managed to get people to be notified on topic replies via email, but if a new member receive a PM they will not be notified via email, so they won't know if someone is trying to reach them via the forums, is there anyway to fix this?

Here is a screenshot of what I am talking about, my one is always checked, always has been, but those defaults didn't seem to carry over during the upgrade to 3.1 for new users...

I tried what it said, it still didn't work..

This is the unedited version of functions_user.php

Code: Select all

'user_notify'			=> 1,
		'user_notify_pm'		=> 1,
		'user_notify_type'		=> NOTIFY_EMAIL,
		'user_allow_pm'			=> 1,
		'user_allow_viewonline'	=> 1,
		'user_allow_viewemail'	=> 1,
		'user_allow_massemail'	=> 1,

And then I edited and it looked like this:

Code: Select all

'user_notify'			=> 1,
		'user_notify_pm'		=> 1,
		'user_notify_type'		=> NOTIFY_BOTH,
		'user_allow_pm'			=> 1,
		'user_allow_viewonline'	=> 1,
		'user_allow_viewemail'	=> 1,
		'user_allow_massemail'	=> 1,

and I ran this query

Code: Select all

UPDATE phpbb_users SET user_notify = 1

Just to properly explain what I wanted to happen, I wanted the both boxes to be checked where is says "Someone sends you a private message " I wanted this for new members & current ones that joined after the update to 3.1, everyone who joined prior to the 3.1 update seem to have both boxes checked, what am I doing wrong?

Thanks in advance.
