The discussion on that page eventually outlined a solution, but it might be a little hard to pull together, and Discourse admin navigation has probably changed a bit.

This kind of thing is done by creating a simple Theme Component:

- Go to Admin → Appearance → Themes & components
- Click the Install button, and in the dialog choose “+ Create New”
- Name it something like “Groups page intro” and leave the Type selector on Component
- Click “Create”
- Select your theme(s) and click the Edit Code button.

On the CSS tab, paste:

```plaintext
.welcome-message {
    display:none;
}
.groups-page .welcome-message {
    display:block;
    margin: 20px;
}

```

In the After Header tab, paste:

```plaintext
<div class="welcome-message">Put your welcome info and instructions here</div>

```

Save it, and refresh your Groups page – you should see your new text above the normal page contents.
