I’ve managed to get it to work. After enabling AI bot enable dedicated UX in the DiscourseAI settings, I created a group called “Bot Test” (bot-test) and set it as the primary for a test user. then i used the custom-homepage-for-groups theme component and set the group page map setting to bot-test:/discourse-ai/ai-bot/conversations. my test user now has a homepage of the bot page.
Test user homepage:
The problem is that “back to forum” links break and clicking the logo just reloads the page (of course, since it’s the homepage). One has to awkwardly navigate out manually (by going to “/hot” in the URL address bar for example), or break out via the user menu or advanced search menu.
