How can I add a sentence like “By registering, you agree to the privacy policy and terms of service.” on the registration page. To a similar question an answer before was this: Admin, customize, user fields, required checkbox But this is not what I want. This also adds a check box. What is the best way to add just a sentence without the check box. I can try to do it by changing the HTML source code may be but may be there is a better way. Thanks.

Can’t you just goto /admin/customize/user_fields click on creat user field and then select Text field as your type? Apologies, I mis-read what you wanted to do.

If I choose text field then it displays a textfield for getting some text from the user

[תמונה] pfaffman: All text in Discourse can be customized in Admin/settings/text content. You can search either by the name of the text or the text in it. Jay, I thought of suggesting that, but there isn’t really any text on the sign-up screen to customize! [תמונה] What text would you suggest customizing there?

Remember CSS can add text using inserts, before or after.

You could do it with CSS, but having some kind of terms of use does seem like something that lots of people should have. It might include stuff like who can do what with stuff posted on ththe site and so on. Many sites require you to agree to terms to participate. Whether that falls under the umbrella of Civilized Discussion is unclear.

This has been included since 2013 when the project launched.. see /faq /tos /privacy And since Discourse 1.7 in the footer of the account creation dialog [תמונה]

So maybe that is what this person wants linked or acknowledged on the signup page. I checked my TOS page. It appears to be the stock page with these words added at the top: :grinning_face: Arguably, I should revisit that.

thanks for the replies but I’m not sure what is the suggested solution here.
