Is there a way for me to automatically send a private message from my account to every new user?
I’m running a members-only forum and want to start a private message thread with every new user. Instead of waiting for them to do that, I want to automatically initiate the conversation when they join.
Right now I’m sending them out manually every time a new user joins.
This already happens, try creating a new account on your site and notice the automatic incoming welcome PM. Edit the copy of that PM to taste via Admin, Customize, Text.
Thanks Jeff. I just tried that and got a “Greetings!” PM from Discobot.
Is it possible for me to send this from my admin account instead of as Discobot?
I can’t see the “Greetings!” PM under Admin > Customize > Text. I only see these 4:
Search for unique words in the text.
Found it! 
IMHO that UX is a bit confusing. It gives the impression that there are only 4 messages available to edit and that the search functionality will just search within those 4 messages.
I think it would be clearer if it made it more obvious that there were a lot more messages that can be viewed and edited e.g. if there was a pagination indicator at the bottom of the list, that would have been a lot more obvious to me and I might have used the search before asking my silly question. 
Also, can I send that message as myself or does it have to come from the Discobot account?
وإذا كان يجب أن يأتي من Discobot، هل يمكن لي أو لأحد أعضاء فريقنا الرد عليه إذا واجه المستخدم مشكلة أو لديه سؤال؟
أرى أنه لم يتم الرد على هذا السؤال، وأنا أيضًا مهتم. هل هذا ممكن؟
لم أستخدم هذه الإضافة حتى الآن، لكن قد يكون من الممكن استخدام Discourse Automation لتحفيز إرسال رسالة؟
