Hi I'm Laura


Hi, I'm Laura and I'm the owner of a Mommy's group forum. I love your recipe Mod -- thanks!

I am very, very new at all of this (I took some programming classes back in the dark ages when we learned Basic and Pascal but haven't kept up). This is my first forum so I'm learning everything from scratch, but having fun doing it!

What do you use to make your welcome message directing new members who haven't posted before to do so? I love it and it something similar would be great on my site.

Hey Laura,

Glad you like the Recipe Mod!

Feel free to ask any vbulltin related questions as I know a thing or two about vbulletin

About the auto pm, that is a default vbulletin feature. I would go through the settings 1 by 1 to become more familiar with your vbulletin. Remember, its all trial and error !

Re: Hi I'm Laura


Actually, I was referring to the message at the top of the screen that said I hadn't posted yet and should do so in the introduction section (which there isn't under that name by the way).

Re: How do you stop people spamming your board


I use no spam and it stops almost all the bots; however I encounter manual spamming by a lot of people. In which cases I normally delete the thread, ban their accounts and censor their site’s url so it cant even be posted by normal members!

People have to learn that they cant earn online by spamming people!
