Install Guide | How to install plugins in Discourse |
We all know forum signatures are a relic of the past, but there are still a lot of communities that really love them. Since Discourse is I crafted a plugin that lets us take back our much loved (gif animated) signatures!
Configure
You need to enable the plugins options for all users by going to your Admin settings over at your-site/admin/site_settings/
and navigate to the plugins section your-site/admin/site_settings/category/plugins
. Then in the filter box, type in signatures
to filter out this plugins settings:
After that, each user will need to enable the signature setting on their profile and select a signature:
And thatβs it!
Advanced Configuration Mode
You can also enable advanced mode on the plugin settings and use a full-blown post editor to create your signature! With text, multiple images, etc.
Thanks to @charleswalter who pushed for this and made it possible, @eviltrout who made it compatible, and the Discourse team for such an amazing project.
Notes:
- It is not possible to make this default on for all users; users must intentionally opt in to have a signature experience.
- Enable advanced mode if you want both pictures and text in signatures.
