Mike Outram Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 Trying to find how to enable private messaging between members. On my forum I seem to be missing the 'message' button. (bottom image) Is there some setting I'm missing? (no jokes!) Thanks, Mike Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaltyBart Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 Have you enabled massages at: acp>>system>>applications>>system>>messages ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike Outram Posted September 22, 2016 Author Share Posted September 22, 2016 Hi @R-023 Yes that's enabled. And the permissions are set right. Any other ideas? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike Outram Posted September 22, 2016 Author Share Posted September 22, 2016 yep, I tried composing a pm from the email link at the top of ipb, but i can't send messages. It says "*user* cannot receive messages". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark H Posted September 22, 2016 Share Posted September 22, 2016 That specific error text means that either the member has disabled their messenger themselves in their user controls, or that their Inbox is full. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KentT Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 Where is the setting for them to enable/disable messages in their Account Settings or elsewhere? I'm dealing with a similar issue on my recently converted site. Messages are enabled for every user group other than Guests in ACP. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Correct me if I'm wrong @Mark H, there is not a setting to disabled this option for all members @KentT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KentT Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 Here is where I enabled Messages in the ACP>System>System, then edited the Permissions. But, neither I nor my users see the link you show on the Inbox. Mine are working, some other users are not. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SaltyBart Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 Click on Go to inbox and then you have the option. Also you can edit this in the AdminCP from each user separated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
