Default Privacy Level

Hi there

Got my site working but need to tweak a few settings....

How does one set it in Admin so that new users picture, videos, files etc are uploaded to 'members' privacy only?

Thanks.

am also interested in the issue.

Have you any ideas?

Thank you

Bump - Need help guys/gals...anything on this issue?

This is really important to me as well... my site has a lot of youngsters (with parents' permission), and when I made the move to D7, privacy went out the back door!  :)  I should have checked that first, but I didn't (don't ask me what I was thinking...).

Hi,

Admin - Settings - Privacy settings = uncheck Public group.

That may be the only option for now... I really like giving members the option of making things open to everyone- that's been a real turn off in the past, and I'm excited that it's available, but I would really like to be able to control all members' default privacy settings.

Thanks for the response!

I believe default privacy settings could be changed in the database as is this one of the settings we are asked to set during the installation process.

Good point- thanks.  :)

The settings are in database table sys_privacy_actions.

Just replace default group No. from 3 which is public to 5 for friends for example. I found it easier to export the table, use search and replace using

a text editor and then importing it to the database after dropping the original table.

Excellent- thanks a lot, promis33.
