phpBB Change The Default To "Notify Me" When a Reply is Posted
How to make it so members default settings are that they are notified via email when their Topic or Post is replied to? This is how.
OPEN includes/functions_user.php.
Search for...
'user_notify' => 0,
Edit to...
'user_notify' => 1,
To change preMod members, run this query in phpMyAdmin. Make note that your table prefix is indeed phpbb_. If not edit as needed.
UPDATE phpbb_users SET user_notify = 1 WHERE user_type <> 2
