Changing Welcome Message

On our Discourse forum, we’re looking into changing our welcome message to a custom made one that reflects our community specifically. We were unaware that when Discobot came to be, the original welcome message changed to a “walk-through” of core Discourse functions.

I had a look through a few topics regarding altering the welcome message and found this link:

admin/customize/email_templates/system_messages.welcome_user

We swapped the old content for the new custom made content and whenever we create a new account, the Discobot message shows up, not the custom made message we inputted.

Surely there must be a way to set the welcome message to a static message instead of the dynamic Discobot message?

Assuming you’re referring to this message:

You should be looking for discourse_narrative_bot.new_user_narrative.hello.message to change the bot’s initial message.

Is that under the email templates tab?

No, text content. yoursite.com/admin/customize/site_texts

Hi Joshua. Can’t find it, maybe is that changed in recent versions of the platform?

Nope, the string is the same.

I did these changes. Is there any way for me to see the change and make sure that the changes are how we want them to be? I have an active admin account so I assume I cannot see that. I cannot sign up with a new email as we are limiting sign-ins to only as specific domain names. Our instance is hosted by discourse.

As an admin you can check the latest messages sent by Discobot visiting its profile.

抱歉打扰了旧帖,但更新欢迎消息后是否有延迟?我已经更新了 discourse_narrative_bot.new_user_narrative.hello.message 中的文本,但它仍然从另一个来源拉取欢迎消息。

您是指包含相同内容的现有欢迎消息,还是指文本更新后发送给新用户帐户的新欢迎消息?

更改文本不会更新现有的私人消息。

文本更新后发送了新的欢迎消息,我正在通过 Discobot 的发件箱进行检查。

另一件奇怪的事情是,我甚至找不到欢迎消息文本的确切来源,它是否可能从 discourse_narrative_bot.new_user_narrative.hello.message 以外的叙述中提取?

我刚刚在我的测试站点上试了一下,编辑 discourse_narrative_bot.new_user_narrative.hello.message 更改了当我注册一个新测试用户时 Discobot 的“问候!”消息文本。您可能找错了字段。我认为找到要编辑的正确字段的最佳方法是复制消息中一些独特内容的片段,然后将其粘贴到搜索框中。:+1:

还有一个类似的系统欢迎消息文本字段 system_messages.welcome_user.text_body_template,这可能是您要找的?

此主题很好地概述了入职流程中的一些设置和消息,或许能给您一些关于可以检查哪些其他设置的提示:
