How do I disable "Automatically Parse URL's" automatically?

[JediSJ]

Quick question - is there anyway to have that check box that states "Automatically Parse URL's" UNCHECKED by default?

its an option in the admin control panel under forum options

Hmmm, I'm probably just not seeing it - could you possibly give me the steps to find it, I checked in the VBulletin Options section and the individual forum sections, but I am just not able to find it.

Actually I think you have to modify the newthread and newreply templates to do this. Try changing this:

<input type="checkbox" name="parseurl" value="yes" $parseurlchecked>

To this:

<input type="checkbox" name="parseurl" value="no" $parseurlchecked>

Nope, that didn't change it. Let me try something else.

Ahhh, just remove the $parseurlchecked:

<input type="checkbox" name="parseurl" value="yes">
