How can I change the subheader on the signup form?

Hi!

I’m trying to change the subheader on the signup form, but I can’t find that under site texts anywhere. I think it used to be js.create_account.subheader_title, but that’s not there anymore. We’re using the hosted Discourse service.

Perhaps js.create_account.header_title is what you’re looking for?

Close, but that’s just the title. I want to have a bit more description when someone signs up.

Here’s an example from https://forums.jag-lovers.com/ :

A welcome screen for account creation displays fields for email, username, name, password, and optional car information, along with helpful prompts and password visibility options. (Captioned by AI)

The example you shared is a forum that uses a Discourse version from almost a year ago. The current sign-up page doesn’t have a subheader.

Yeah I was going off of the post here: Editing Sign Up form
It would be great if that could be readded, perhaps?

I think you could add a text with a simple theme component

Ok, I’m writing a theme component for other functionality during signup anyway, maybe I can add that there then. Do you have any examples of how to do that?

I’d take a look at Theme Developer Tutorial: 4. Using Outlets to insert and replace content

I think there is a outlet pretty close to where you want to add the text
