Is it possible to opt-out individual members without enabling the opt-out feature for everyone? if so, what table/row is it and what is the value?

actually that feature is meant to be used on a per-user basis.

The admin settings page option for opt-out is whether or not to enable that feature at all for your site.

If enabled then each user when they edit their profile has the option of opting out of activity. So if you have a few users you want to opt-out, just edit their profile and opt them out there.

Ok - so i dont want anyone to have the opt-out feature
However, i DO want to opt-out myself and my moderators

If i enable the opt-out option, edit the profiles and click the opt-out box then their activity is not recorded.. but since i dont want anyone else to opt-out, i disable the site-wide opt-out feature.. once i do that, my activity and my moderator's activity is recorded again..

i'm not seeing a way to opt out specific users while not allowing other users to opt themselves out..

(GREAT module BTW)

mmm I guess another approach then would be to add in a selector to only include/exclude activity by role. I'll consider adding that as an option.

Why not leave it site wide but make a permission for opting out? Then it's set user by user but only certain roles have access to it.

Thinking of this approach:

new permission of 'hide activity' which enabled for a role means that the user's activity will not be recorded. So for admin users enabling 'hide activity' for their role will stop that activity from being recorded.
