How do I create a new Welcome Message for users?

#0, by dashwire, 11 July 2008 08:42 PM

As the admin I wrote a welcome message for users (the one that shows up above the Headlines page) and then I had to delete it because I needed to change something. Now though I can't seem to find a way to create another welcome message... I can't get to that set-up page.

Is there a way to write another one? Thanks for the help

At the moment, if you've deleted your 'new member welcome message', there is no way to recreate it, we'll have this fixed as part of an admin panel update we're currently working on.

if you've deleted it, it's still not available, we'll have a new admin panel in the near future that will address this issue.

You can edit the CSS for your theme and customize it however you want.

Ok, if a welcome message is not deleted, can it be updated?

Thanks,

Have you not fixed this issue yet? It has been pending for about 9 months. I also had to delete my welcome message due to the fact that it was posted in the wrong category, and couldn't be moved. Please let us know!

We haven't yet added the ability to edit this message, but you are free to delete the default lefora message and add your own.  We'll be changing around how this system works in the future.

Not to shake you up more, Chief, but I too will be happy to see this feature added. :D

And if it's not going to be available in the near future - you might want to consider adding some language like "Choose your words carefully, this welcome message cannot be updated... yet". So people have a heads-up.

Thanks!

I guess this answers my question. I would really like to change the welcome message and make it a more individual one for my forum.

Watch me. Never tell me I can't. I know I can.
