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 class="lightbox" href="https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/4X/7/b/8/7b82687851c9e5c6f92a41cc4273dfe3cf82ce36.png" data-download-href="/uploads/short-url/hCC7RO0nTceRZgkZm79ZuPU0FD0.png?dl=1" title="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.

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 [image]

Wow! That’s good to know. I wrote it largely as a proof of concept, so it’s good to hear that someone found it useful!

Hoe kan ik de subkop op het aanmeldformulier wijzigen?

I ended up using the Custom Components by @pfaffman for this purpose, that was the easiest route for us.
