Automatic Ranks, Emails and Hidden Online Status of fellow Admins.

by Professor Clayton May 21st 2013, 2:28 am

Sorry to throw this all in one thread, but I'm busy tonight. D: So I have a few quick questions:

1). Is it possible to have Points add up, and when a certain amount is reached, a new rank is automatically given to you?

2). All my users are getting a lot of emails about replies in threads. Besides individually not following each thread, is there like a "mass off button" they or I can click to stop these emails?

3). When another Admin has their online status hidden, can I still see them online?

Thank you! :3

Yes! All you have too do is go too acp>Users and groups>Ranks>Rank Administration Then create new rank and don't mark it as a special rank and post too reach this rank, That is where you set the limit of post a member has too have too have that rank.

All you have too do is go too your profile and click contact and uncheck allow users too contact me by email.

3). When another Admin has their online status hidden, can I still see them online?

Yes.

1) and 3). Alright, thanks! Very Happy

2). That doesn't stop it, I've tried. I mean that every time they post in a thread, they automatically 'watch' it. And every new post in it is alerted by email. D:

For number 2. Tell users to go into preferences in their profile and say "no" to the option - "Always notify me of replies :"

This will stop members getting so many email notifications.
