I FOUND THE ANSWER!!!
You need to edit newbb/xoops_version.php

towards the end is the following two lines

$modversion['notification']['event'][6]['admin_only'] = 1;
$modversion['notification']['event'][8]['admin_only'] = 1;

Change the 1 to a 0 (that means no) and thts all there is to it.

I want to make a sub menu submit button for xoopspolls on my main menu. The problem is that the polls.php file is actually under my newbb module so this wont work.

// Menu
$modversion['hasMain'] = 1;
// my mod
$modversion['sub'][1]['name'] = "Submit";
$modversion['sub'][1]['url']= "polls.php ";

Is there anyway of having that button direct to a file under another module?

I did all the above steps except the redirects as that is not an issue for us. At first the login worked fine with IE but Firefox gave everyone the security warning seen earlier in this thread. When I did the steps to eliminate that problem Firefox worked perfectly but with IE when you get to the last step on the login process (the close button), the popbox does not close and the main window does not refresh (show you logged in). I can close the popup window and refresh the main page manually and I'll be signed in. IE gives me the following error message.

Line: 14
Char: 1
Error: Permision denied
Code: 0
URL:https://www.ourwebsite.org/xoopsdir/misc.php?
action=showpopups&type=ssllogin

Here is the begining including line 14 of our misc.php


include "mainfile.php";
include_once XOOPS_ROOT_PATH.'/language/'.$xoopsConfig['language'].'/misc.php';
$action = isset($_GET['action']) ? trim($_GET['action']) : '';
$action = isset($_POST['action']) ? trim($_POST['action']) : $action;
$type = isset($_GET['type']) ? trim($_GET['type']) : '';
$type = isset($_POST['type']) ? trim($_POST['type']) : $type;

if ( $action == "showpopups" ) {
xoops_header(false);
// show javascript close button?
$closebutton = 1;
switch ( $type ) {
case "smilies":
$target = isset($_GET['target']) ? trim($_GET['target']) : '';
if ($target == '' || !preg_match('/^[0-9a-z_]*$/i', $target)) {
} else {
echo "<script type=\"text/javascript\"><!--//
function doSmilie(addSmilie) {
var currentMessage = window.opener.xoopsGetElementById(\"".$target."\").value;



Any Ideas? Thanks

Hello. I'm trying to eliminate some of the fields in the registration process. I'm running XOOPS 2.0.16 using PHP 4.4. I have tried using formulize and Reg Codes but then Everyone needs to enter a registration code to get to the registration process. It would be much easier to elminate some of the fields. Thanks
