Default Blocking unwanted private messages

A few members have mentioned that they are receiving unwanted private messages and have asked how to block the person sending them. This is how to do it if you are having that problem.
  1. Go to your User CP and on the left hand side, scroll down until you see Buddy/Ignore list and click on it.
  2. Add the people that you would like to receive private messages from to your buddy list.
  3. Once you have completed and saved your buddy list, click on Edit Options.
  4. Under Messaging & Notification you will see You may limit the receipt of private messages to just moderators and those on your buddy list. Other members who attempt to send messages to you will be told that you have disabled private messaging. Check the box next to that option.
  5. Scroll down and click on Save Changes.

Couldn't you add them to the Ignore list? That would work too.

If I'm not mistaken, putting them on the ignore list will just block you from seeing anything that they post also. Yep. I was right. When you add someone to the ignore list, it does block you from seeing what they have posted.

Okay. I'm not used to VB forums. I know on like the PHPBB forums, it only blocks pms.

Thanks for testing, and posting results.

You're welcome. I'm use to the admin and mod cp's on phpBB and Invision boards. vB is a whole different ball game.
