Hm, this is strange: why does the topic I linked in [this topic](https://meta.discourse.org/t/edit-discobot-greetings-msg-customize-onboarding/80144/5) have my avatar? Shouldn’t it (i.e. the onebox) show the poster’s avatar?

Nice catch, @zogstrip since you have recently been all over this code can you have a look?

I like the links included but would like to tweak the wording to match my community: Also, I am interested in customizing the on-boarding process for new users.

Turns out, we had 5 topics where “`topic.user_id != topic.posts.first.user_id`” and that topic was one of them.

I’m not 100% sure how this happened… I think it could be because of our “move posts to a new topic” feature that wasn’t working properly back then?

I wonder if this is bad splits of topic (eg bugs we fixed but did not add a migration to correct the historical issues)
