The welcome message gets some prepended text if the new user came to the forum by way of an invitation. There’s a minor typo in there - see screenshot. But the real issue for me is that this template text is not editable by admins. It’s very good already but I think admins will want to customize it a bit.

I also do think the message should [come from the inviter](https://meta.discourse.org/t/should-welcome-message-for-invited-users-come-from-the-inviter/14466) or at least the inviter should be included as a recipient in the PM, and the inviter should be given an opportunity to [write a brief personal message](https://meta.discourse.org/t/make-invitation-email-text-customizable-by-admin-or-inviter/16408) to the invitee.

Typo is fixed per

[https://github.com/kamilbielawski/discourse/commit/dca1394b8601df649e2b2e160f926b7184f4cb9c](https://github.com/kamilbielawski/discourse/commit/dca1394b8601df649e2b2e160f926b7184f4cb9c)

recategorizing as feature as “editablitiy” is not really a bug.

Closing as duplicate of

> Would it be possible to make the invitation email text customizable? Depending on how the permissions are set up on the forum, the text as it is now may not reflect reality or make sense. I also would like to have this be a plain text email that shows the URL in cleartext and so can’t be mistaken for a phishing email. Here’s what it looks like now on my forum - but when you click on “Visit Kabissa” it does not take the user to the post but to the forum homepage… and they do have to log in befor…
