I don’t believe that is. It’s the default message shown to logged out users who have been browsing for a while.

This isn’t a plugin or theme component — it’s actually built-in core functionality of Discourse. When a visitor isn’t logged in and has browsed for a bit, the login/signup prompt is automatically shown. You don’t need to install anything extra — just make sure the **Enable Signup CTA** (“enable\_signup\_cta”) site setting is turned on.
