Welcome message - Where is it?

This is the content of the "User Welcome" page. You can edit this page within the site theme by going to Manage Site Theme > Pages > find "User Welcome" > Edit Layout.

The text that is displayed is rendered by the Core - Message widget, but can be removed in favor of another widget or generic content.

Maybe I'm just too new to the Administration panel, but I also can't find anything for the user welcome.  lallison  - were you able to do this at all or are you waiting for the next release?

Hi KMSigma 

The section Membership > New member experience will get you to the welcome message. Are you specifically looking for the page I showed above? 

For the Welcome message that is located on the System message page you will need to go to: Interface > Widget studio > Core Message > Resources > then look for the CreateNewAccount_NewUserMessage

I have not figured out how to update with a hyperlink yet. Perhaps Luke R Davidson might know.

 KMSigma Yep, lallison 's recommendation is the way to go currently, but agreed this needs to be improved.

As for including a hyperlink, you can add other HTML to that same message through the resource. For example, here's the default value of that resource with a link added to the end.

<p>Welcome to the community! Your account has been created and you are signed in.</p><p>You can take a few minutes now and {2} or go back to the {1} of the community. Or, just click the "Ok" button to go back to the page you were just on.</p><p><a href="https://www.telligent.com">Here's a link!</a></p>

OMG - thank you so much!  I'm working on updating it now!

You are welcome!

Hi Michael Monteleone I am not a coder so please bear with me. If I want to add a hyperlink to a thread I need to write the href first followed by the text?

alexandra.brais is on my team and probably understands this better. 

That's right. An HTML link follows the format:

<a href="URL">LABEL</a>

Thank you!
