  • disabling bulletins during logon

    From Lizard King@1:103/705 to All on Thursday, October 18, 2018 14:35:53
    I'm sorry if this is an obvious/recurring question but I am definitely a newbie when it comes to this software.

    I figure out how to edit the bulletins when you log in -- but how do you disable them altogether? Is there some configuration file that controls the sequence of stuff that happens during login? Or is that hard-coded in C somewhere?

    In your Synchronet configuration (SCFG), go to External Programs > Online Programs (Doors), and go to where you have the Bullseye door set up. In your Bullseye configuration, set the "Execute on Event" option to "No" (by default, the Execute on Event option for Bullseye is set to "Logon" so that it will run during logon).

    Ahhh, brilliant! Thank you!

    This may answer any number of other stupid questions I would have come up with next.
