Hi!

I'd like to know if there's a way to do several things with PMs

1. Block a user to unlu send/recive PMs from Mods and Admins ONLY (No contacts)

2. Block User from erasing PMs and storing sent ones, with out him beeing able to change that back.

Thanks

1) I don't understand.

2) You can't stop some one from erasing their PMs. But you can set the default for the "save a copy" option when sending PMs. See this thread:

Actually the query to disable it for all users is:

UPDATE user SET
options = options - 33554432
WHERE options & 33554432

Just for you to get the idea why I'm asking for this.
There's a user we presume is using our forum to run his own business, sending PMs every day.
We need to block that option (PM Sending) for him or let him do so and go in the DB and see his PMs to know if we are right.

1) The only option I have to restrict a user from sending PMs is the one that says "Only to Mods, Admins and Contacts". I need him to only be able to contacts o be contacted by Admins or Mods.

2) Thanks, update done.

1) There is no such option.
