Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted October 9, 200420 yr I have a couple of users who always seem to have full mailboxes on my boards. Is it possible for the admin group to send them messages and override their maximum number of messages?

They said "*I* have a couple of users" which means they are the Admin of the board. If you mean to see the AdminCP, then you should say where to go in the AdminCP.
October 10, 200420 yr I think the user was saying, as an admin he can change the max level. But this wouldn't make a difference because they will just fill it again. I think he is saying a admin/moderator should be able to override the max message setting so it would be a 21/20 type of deal. I see his point, and would agree with it.
October 10, 200420 yr I would think that the Admin could (or should be able to) already do that. Also, the user "123" just make smart aleck replies. If you look through other threads at their comments, you'll notice how they aren't really contributing but rather just being rude.

That way admins can PM people and not E-Mail them, PM's are seen while at the board, emails arent.

October 19, 200420 yr There is a way you can have unlimited storage space. I don't have IPB ACP, but this is what I know 2 do: ACP-Manage user group-(user group)-max number of storable messages ? _____(50, is normally there). Change "50" to "0" and you will never run out of room. So if you want the Admin (ROOT) group to have ~ space do what I suggested above but put "Admin (ROOT)" in the "(user group)". Same goes for other member groups.
