I read these posts about Bootstrap mode. It makes sense but I’m not clear on something.

What is Bootstrap Mode support

I am the admin of a new forum which has been technically setup for me. I have a fair knowledge of the possibilities and settings in Discourse after reading through the forum and I have to say, I’m very excited about it! As an admin I get the message about Bootstrap Mode every time I visit. Which is OK. I know it’s an admin-only message. What I don’t get is what Bootstrap Mode exactly is. What does it do and why? Why is it a part of Discourse and what are the positive effects of it? I can’t real…

How to re-enable bootstrap mode? support

I failed to increase bootstrap mode min users before I reached the default of 50 users. I increased it to 100 and expected that that would automatically re-enable bootstrap mode until the new number of users is reached, but apparently this is not the case as new users are all TL0. How can I re-enable bootstrap mode?

What I’m not clear on is:

1. We are self-hosted

2. I have upped Bootstrap mode from the normal 50

3. In our config, the default user trust level is set to 0

4. Our test users are signing up but I see their trust level is at 0 instead of 1

Note: I do not see the admin message that Bootstrap mode is on
Do I need to run the console command line to turn on boostrap mode since I don’t see the admin message at the top?

So do I set the default trust level to 1 and then after we pass our threshold it will auto change to 0? Or do I leave it at 0 but the system auto sets the users to trust level 1?

Thanks in advance
