"Show Signature" on by default

[xortam]

Ant ... is it possible for you to uncheck the "Show Signarture" option by default when we post? I don't see where we can set this default ourselves.

[Ant]

User Control Panel > Edit Options > Thread View Options

Doh! I even noticed that option before when I first got on the boards yesterday. Unfortunately, it doesn't seem to work for me.

BTW ... nice avatar. Where does a fella pick up some of these?

You find yourself a cool picture and you shrink it to 50x50 .
Well, not too complex of a picture, otherwise we won't distinguish anything from it.

Hey Ant,

that particular option is for viewing threads, not for posting ...

What if I want to see all posted signatures, but don't want to include mine by default ?

Erm so you want to view everyone elses sigs in their posts but not your own and you want everyone else to see your sig? I don't think that's possible, it's either sigs on or sigs off.

close ...

I want to see all sigs (if posted) and want my "show signature" tick box unchecked by default ... possible ?

[Ant]

Erm so you don't want to have a sig? Just don't have one then? Very confused here

[Maggi]

Confuzius strolling around again ...

I want to have a sig, but only want to use it sometimes.

Thus it would be cool to have that check box unchecked by default and just enable it in the moment I want to include my sig while keeping the setting to see all posted sigs ...

getting clearer ?

[Maggi]

see ?

it just happened again ... I forgot to uncheck "show signature" ...

[Jorden]

Maggi, the way to do it is to go into User CP -> Edit Profile and delete everything in your signature box. If you submit changes with an empty signature box, your show signature box at every post will be off by default.

Ofcourse, if you want to add a sig only now and then, saving it as a textfile on your desktop or in your taskbar is an option, then copy&paste when you need it

[Maggi]

sure, but that's a workaround, not a solution ...

[Wulfman]

looks like I have done something stupid when I told you that I can see your sig.... only caused problems...
