When new users register, is there a way to have their profile default settings be different than they are now?

For example, the Email Post Notification is by default set to Yes. I'd prefer to have it default to No. Any way I can do this?

Forum version 2.3.8

I changed this in register.php.t

Quote:

*
* If this is users first vist to the registration form setup the
* default values
*/
if ( empty($usr->id) && empty($error) ) {
$reg_display_email = 'Y';
$reg_ignore_admin = 'N';
$reg_email_messages = 'Y';
$reg_pm_messages = 'Y';
$reg_append_sig = 'Y';
$reg_show_sigs = 'Y';
$reg_show_avatars = 'Y';
$reg_show_im = 'Y';
$reg_invisible_mode = 'N';
$reg_notify = 'N';
$default_view = $GLOBALS['DEFAULT_THREAD_VIEW'];
}

But when I tried a new registration, the notify was still set to "Y". Is there something else I need to do?

(The only change I made was $reg_notify = 'N'. While testing I tried changing $reg_ignore_admin to 'Y' but that didnt take either.)
