Setting/Text for Waving Hand Sign Up Emoji

AI-generated summary

The discussion revolves around customizing the waving hand icon used in account sign-up and login screens in Discourse. cogdog asks about changing or removing the waving hand emoji. JammyDodger suggests using CSS to hide the icon and mentions that the text can be customized via js.create_account.header_title and js.login.header_title. Canapin provides a more advanced solution using SCSS to hide the waving hand and replace it with a Discourse emoji, such as a smiley face, by styling the login-title element. The thread highlights both CSS and text-based customization options, with the latter being more accessible for users unfamiliar with theme components.

Where is / Is there a setting for changing the waving hand icon on the new account sign ups?

I believe you can remove it with a little CSS:

Yes I can certainly do that. I think my people wanted to change the image for something else.

One way could be to hide the waving-hand and add the emoji to the text field:

js.create_account.header_title

js.login.header_title

Other than that, I’m not sure. Hopefully someone else can chip in. :slightly_smiling_face::crossed_fingers:

That’s what I was looking for! The text customization fields can be difficult to find. Thanks

If you want to use a Discourse emoji and have it at the same place as the original emoji, you can use the following code:

.waving-hand {
    display: none;
}
.login-title:after {
    content: "";
    background: url("https://emoji.discourse-cdn.com/twitter/slight_smile.png?v=12");
    background-size: contain;
    display: inline-block;
    height: 35px;
    width: 35px;
    margin-left: 35px;
}
