Pre-Checked Newsletter Box in Registration?

Hiya all...

Could anybody tell me how to have my newsletter check box ticked when people register - so they have the option of removing it, rather than checking it?

Thanks

Re: Pre-Checked Newsletter Box in Registration?

You should alter the "skin1/modules/News_Management/register_newslists.tpl" template and replace this code:

Code:

<td><input type="checkbox" name="subscription[{$listid}]" {if $subscription[$listid] ne ""}checked="checked"{/if} /></td>

with this:

Code:

<td><input type="checkbox" name="subscription[{$listid}]" {if $subscription[$listid] ne "" or $main eq "register"}checked="checked"{/if} /></td>

FYI, this kind of defeats the purpose of 'opt in' and may be viewed by some of your customers as a bit shady.
