Enable Private Messages
What needs to be done to enable private messaging here? In my user control panel, I have this message
and when I try to PM or email a user, I have no contact info
Example shown here for Steve, but all users are the same.
Thanks,
Greg

Re: Enable Private Messages
I think there is a minimum of three or maybe four posts that a new member needs to make BEFORE the Private Message privilege is activated on a profile.

Re: Enable Private Messages
Yeah, I think you have to have a few posts under your belt, it's a means to prevent bots from spamming other users with Private Messages. Normally doing the initial introduction post gets people over the limit. Been a while since I ran my own PHPBB3 Forum though I could be mistaken, or "misremembering" but I think it was introduced in PHPBB version 3.0.6.

Re: Enable Private Messages
Stan, WELCOME to the Corvair Forum!
Post a few more times and all should be able to send and receive Private Messages.
As I understand it, you happen to be a well respected Corvair enthusiast.
Maybe start a new topic to introduce yourself for those of us that may not be familiar with you.
If you used a different user name on other platforms you might consider sharing that with the community IF you are comfortable doing so.

Greg, Welcome to the Forum. I hope you like it here.
I noticed that you have already added a signature line with your general location which is not only helpful but beneficial.
It wouldn't hurt to start a thread to introduce yourself and let us know a bit about yourself and your Corvair experience.
IF you happened to have participated on other platforms using a different user name and are comfortable sharing that with the community, it might be worth considering.

Re: Enable Private Messages
We have a three post rule. You cannot access private messages until you have posted three times. It's to keep any spammers from private messaging you.

Re: Enable Private Messages
I am wondering if there is a glitch in the system.
I have 30 posts since 2010, when I joined. I used to be able to send and receive PMs, but not recently.
I'd like to message you Scott about the problem, but how??? Can't PM!

Pretty hard to message me if you don’t have access to them.
I checked your account. You’re in the group that is allowed access. You should be good.
