• Synchronet - disable avatars

    From Michael Borthwick@21:4/132 to All on Fri Feb 1 14:09:33 2019
    Hi,

    I'm trying to disable avatars on Synchronet. I've put in the line set_avatar
    = false under the [logon] section in modopts.ini but it still prompts a new user to select an avatar during registration.

    Is there somewhere else in the config I need to change to disable the prompt for an avatar in the new user registration?

    Cheers!

    Look for the Avatar Chooser entry in scfg -> External Programs -> Online Programs -> Main, and unset the "Execute on Event" setting (is probably set to "New User" right now).

    The set_avatar option in modopts.ini probably only affects whether existing users without avatars are prompted to choose one during logon.
