In 3.8 the sent messages arent saving

[samraz972]

People have to do it manually and before it was automatic
any suggestions?

It is an option in their UserCP in 3.8.0 and higher. They can find it under Edit Options.

When sending private messages the forum can make a copy of the message in your Sent Items folder.
Save a copy of sent messages in my Sent Items folder by default

Theres no way to make it for everyone? at once athat is..

You could use a query:

UPDATE user SET options=options + 3355443 WHERE NOT(options & 3355443)

Sorry to sound like an idiot but how do I do that?

You can run queries within the vBulletin Admin Control Panel by going to Maintenance -> Execute SQL Queries.

To run Queries in the Admin Control Panel you need to edit your config.php file and add your user ID to the Can Run Queries section. It looks like:

// ****** USERS WITH QUERY RUNNING PERMISSIONS ******
// The users specified here will be allowed to run queries from the control panel.
// See the above entries for more information on the format.
// Please note that the ability to run queries is quite powerful. You may wish
// to remove all user IDs from this list for security reasons.
$config['SpecialUsers']['canrunqueries'] = '';

Place your user id between the single quotes.
