If signatures have been enabled and users have them in their profiles, and the admin chooses to remove signatures from the site by making sure they aren't selected for any content type the signatures will still show up (in say forum posts). So the module doesn't actually stop sig's showing up, it just gets rid of the option to input them? So then its a few steps to get rid of them, because for each user who has a sig you have to:

1. go to admin > settings > signature , enable signatures for forum.
2. edit the user and wipe the comment signature box clean.
3. Then disable signatures for forum.

Obviously not a major issue, but thought i would raise it! Thanks for the module.

What you mean under "pre-existing" - those which were before enabling signature.module?

That is, pre-existing are those which are in older postings?

Hi UB,

Sorry not to be clear. By pre-existing i mean signatures which were entered by users into their profiles by users on a clean drupal install. I then hacked about with css and comment.module to stop them showing. Then i got rid of these hacks when i installed signature.module.

Now when someone made a new post and had entered a signature a long time ago it would show up, even though they could not edit in in profile.

I got rid of them with an SQL query.

Since you've got rid of them, this doesn't look like issue any more.
