There's a lot of really great hacks out there, but sometimes certain hacks aren't appropriate for certain situations. Most of the time you're left with commenting out the code (which is ugly) or undoing all of your hard work. Not fun at all.
I just came up with a way to set anything from the general settings (or whatever settings you want.) Talk about a real time-saver! I just completed this hack for my company's forum, so I know it works, but I haven't gone ahead and documented it yet.
Before I do, if someone out there already has this documented, PLEASE spare me the hard work and let me know. Otherwise, I should have this up by the end of the week.
