Dear Support,
we have signature plugin for users so please tell us how to enable signature for all users??
also tell us for every new user we need to enable signature when he register!
In a support thread titled âHow To Apply signature to every user?â, rahulMasal asks how to enable the signature plugin for all users by default, including new registrants. Johani clarifies that signatures are a user preference turned off by default, requiring each user to manually enable them in their profile. rahulMasal confirms the issue: signatures arenât visible unless the user opts in. pfaffman explains that Discourse intentionally disables signatures by default, considering them noisy. Hifihedgehog counters that their users prefer signatures on by default and seeks a programmatic workaround, possibly via database updates. pfaffman suggests reviewing Administrative Bulk Operations for bulk user updates. Hifihedgehog acknowledges this as a viable path. Later, Falco reveals that a recent plugin update includes a setting â signatures_visible_by_default â to enable signatures for all users, thanks to a community contribution. Hifihedgehog thanks them and inquires how to access this feature, noting itâs not yet merged but approved via GitHub PR #17. The discussion highlights user preference vs. admin control, and points toward both plugin settings and bulk operations as solutions.

Support,
thanks for quick reply but my signature is not able to see if they not enable the signature .. means other user signature not showing until user tick or enable!
Thatâs right. Discourse considers signatures noisy and annoying, so they are off by default.
Right, Discourse does, but our users donât and they want it on by default.
Whatâs the trick so we can make this less painless for users who may keep complaining about this enforced âfeatureâ by the powers that be? I suspect there is a database entry that can be updated en masse via the associated magical programmatic words.
You might have a look at Administrative Bulk Operations for some hints. I donât have the plugin installed anywhere to be able to tell you exactly.
Perfect. That looks akin to a data dictionary which is basically what I need to get granular enough to change the related table entries across all users.
There is a setting to enable it for all users in the last version of the plugin thanks to a community contribution.
Thank you! How might I pull that seeing that it has not been merged yet and has only been approved (as of November of last year)? ![]()
