Nice find but there is also one on this site somewhere and all you need to do is change a number lol
Forcing is no good you can force what ever you like but IF the browser is told NO pop ups then they wont get the pop up
use a bar or the red blinking pm mod

Edited for thread cleanup.
None of the above solves the problem for any new users who register after you do this... So, there is something missing there. Like:
Open: functions_user.php
Find:
Replace with:
Code: Select all
// Activate PM popup by default for new users
'user_options' => 231295,

Well, yeah... if you really want to force it no matter what. I just wanted it enabled by default so if people want to disable, they are free to do so. From a quick look at the DB, about 1% of users have disabled this so that not might be a big deal if you really force it enabled. I will possibly look at the UCP edits to remove the options from UCP so that people do not have settings there that take no effect.
Edit: Done.
