[fixed] Weird Problem (On vbulletin.com/forum)

[Kaizen]

I just recieved a PM.

I clicked "send reply" and it would not let me send a message back:

"*username* has chosen not to receive private messages or may not be allowed to receive private messages. Therefore you may not send your message to him/her."

I thought fair enough cos they may have switched it off.

Except when I click on "Forward" the exact same message came up?

Please tell me its something I am doing wrong.

Who were you forwarding it to?

If you are trying to forward it to the same person you're trying to reply to, it still won't work.

(You probably aren't doing this, it just sounded that way from your post.)

I don't get the opportunity to put a name in because it goes straight to the same message, in other words, the Send Reply and Forward button both do exactly the same thing.

For some reason the code that is executed to check whether the recieving user can recieve pms is excuted when you click on Forward. But I want to send it to someone else.

I was attempting to forward it to you. But I did not even get a chance to enter your name.

Confirmed Bug

Open private.php
change

if (!$fromuserinfo['receivepm'] or !$fromusergroup['canusepm']) {

to

if ((!$fromuserinfo['receivepm'] or !$fromusergroup['canusepm']) and $forward != "true") {

Oops !

Does that mean another v2 release ?

It has been confirmed in a blank 2.2.6 and a temporary solution has been posted.
