Hi! We think profile pics are very important for our forum to have the community feel we’re shooting for. What are best practices for encouraging profile pics? One complication is that we need users to go through an approval process before entering Discourse, and I don’t know if that works alongside social log-ins (which we totally want to encourage.) ---

Can’t claim this is a best practice, but what we’ve done is: 1. Create a pinned topic that covers the subject, explains the value of having updated profiles, and explains how to update the fields we care about. 2. When I see someone post as a letter avatar, I sometimes direct message them with a link to that topic. I held off on doing anything like #2 for a long time, but it’s proven to be far more effective than #1 alone. ---

I’ve been thinking about this too, especially for highly active/visible members. Getting them to have a nice avatar image would turn it into ‘leading by example’. I got stuck in finding an automated solution that would DM such users when they posted something. Instead, I think I’ll go with Dave’s solution for a while and see if a small effort can make me reach a tipping point here. ---

There’s already a reminder that pops up dynamically after you’ve replied a few times and are no longer TL0, and still carry a default avatar. > [@codinghorror](#): > > The reminder to add an avatar is shown at post creation time when a user has a few posts under their belt already. So be a new user, have a default avatar, and read and post a bit. Then you will get the reminder when creating another new reply. @tshenry can you test to verify that this is still working on try (remember to reset default TL to 0 before creating an account, as try is TL1 by default)? ---

I kicked off a new account on try at TL0. When I was naturally promoted to TL1, I received the following message which suggests to fill out the user’s profile: ![44%20AM](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/3X/4/5/4552d8cd4335969b477b655fd1d1d1859e76a8de.png) * * * Then as a TL1 user, I received the following notice when I opened the composer: ![16%20AM](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/3X/1/d/1d90d2adfe184487255caafcb5520272668c5191.png) * * * The full conditions for the notification can be found here: > ---

I opened a PR for one area I thought could use improvement. Currently the “visiting your user profile” link in the education message points to the base user profile page. The profile picture setting is at least another click and some scrolling down for a new user, it seems like it might be better to take the user right to it.

Here’s a tactic that others can use. I customized the welcome message to say the following: > **Choose one of these popular first steps to take next.** > > - [Introduce yourself to our community](https://discourse.nycedu.org/t/introduce-yourself-to-the-nycedu-community/132), > - [Add a profile picture](https://discourse.nycedu.org/my/preferences), > - RSVP for an [upcoming event](https://discourse.nycedu.org/t/master-calendar-of-nycedu-events/79), and/or > - Post a conversation starter on #public-square > > You can also learn how to use our website features by starting an [interactive tutorial](https://discourse.nycedu.org/new-message?username=pupbot&title=Hey,%20I'm%20ready%20to%20start%20my%20new%20user%20tutorial!&body=Directions:%20Just%20click%20the%20blue%20%60Message%60%20button%20below%20to%20tell%20@pupbot%20start%20tutorial) or reading the [new user guide](https://meta.discourse.org/t/discourse-new-user-guide/96331). Providing a direct link to the page where users can add a profile picture in the first message they received has helped. It’s a step that most people are familiar with given other social media platforms, so they were able to figure it out pretty easily. ---

Grazie, è stato molto utile per personalizzare i modelli delle email di invito, in particolare il [link generale per le preferenze](https://discourse.nycedu.org/my/preferences), e sono riuscito ad [aggiungerne uno per il Profilo](https://connect.oeglobal.org/my/preferences/profile) poiché richiediamo alcuni campi personalizzati. Apprezzo davvero il link per avviare il tour del bot, è un ottimo modo per imparare Discourse praticando. ---

Ciao Julie, Non è cambiato molto da quando è stato avviato questo argomento: ci sono molti modi per incoraggiare le persone a caricare un avatar personalizzato e ci sono alcune opzioni diverse per avere avatar predefiniti, ma non esiste una soluzione pronta all’uso per imporre l’uso di un avatar personalizzato: ciò richiederebbe un piccolo plugin (non disponibile nel nostro piano Standard). ---

Un modo per farlo senza un plugin sarebbe utilizzare un database di autenticazione esterno e richiedere un avatar per creare un account. ---

In generale, ciò che funziona per me è chiedere direttamente: “Ehi amico, nella nostra community amiamo vedere i volti delle persone. Ho notato che scrivi molti post interessanti: perché non permettere alla nostra community di vedere anche i tuoi? Ti garantisco che parlare con un volto è meglio che parlare con una _lettera dell’alfabeto_.” Ha funzionato il 100% delle volte. ---

Stiamo per lanciare il nostro sito Discourse. I miei utenti sono abituati a una piattaforma listserv e ho configurato le impostazioni email in modo che possano rispondere via email e avviare nuovi post via email. Ma per quanto riguarda le immagini del profilo, la cosa che non capisco è perché a volte gli utenti ricevono un’email che mostra l’immagine del profilo del mittente insieme a un link “Visita argomento” ben formattato (formattato come un pulsante), ma altre volte un nuovo messaggio arriva in un modo meno gradevole: nessuna immagine del profilo e “Visita argomento” è un semplice collegamento ipertestuale. ---

Penso che questo abbia a che fare con la lunghezza del post. Se è un post breve, sembrerà più un’email normale. ---

Sto facendo dei test con diversi account di prova e vedo risultati diversi. Non capisco perché. Ho inviato un messaggio di prova e diversi utenti hanno ricevuto la versione che mostra un’immagine del profilo, come questa: ![2022-01-22_12-44-07](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/3X/5/6/56765ff5e455b34f3238c04fcbc37c105fd8947a.jpeg) Ma ho anche due account di prova che hanno ricevuto lo stesso messaggio, ma senza immagine del profilo. Per loro è apparso così: ![2022-01-22_12-46-42](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/3X/d/6/d6d14210a935079b05bb6f9a7ea2f1b9a1d1e930.jpeg) ---

Gli dico che siamo umani e ci piace vedere (o intuire) con chi stiamo parlando. E suggerisco foto di utenti reali nella mia community come esempio nel caso in cui non si voglia mettere una foto del proprio volto. Foto parziali, con effetti o caricature… qualsiasi cosa, ma umana. ![profile_pic](https://global.discourse-cdn.com/meta/original/3X/0/1/015334bbeab299dab442c3d5260d1881fec69edc.jpeg) ---

Sarebbe possibile aggiungere un’impostazione al campo dell’immagine del profilo utente, rendendo un privilegio riservato allo staff la possibilità di cambiare l’immagine di un utente? O almeno, c’è un modo per nascondere l’“icona cambia immagine” dalla scheda utente (propria) e riabilitare la visualizzazione sulla scheda utente pubblica per (.admin) o (.staff)? In entrambi i casi, questo non sarebbe molto fattibile per le grandi community, per lo più quelle piccole. A meno che non possa essere aggiunta un’impostazione per forzare le modifiche all’immagine dell’utente all’approvazione dello staff. Opzione approva/rifiuta disponibile per lo staff. ---

Probabilmente è più facile nascondere l’opzione tramite CSS, se è quello che ti serve. ---
