Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications By Matt Monday at 02:04 PM
Chris Christian Posted April 26, 2007 Posted April 26, 2007 An ability to redirect new members when they login for the first time in the forum, to a pre-made topic created by an admin or moderator.So, the forum will have a "welcome topic" for all new members. With this topic, the admin can write some important infos for new members, etc.Thanks for read. :)
Digi Posted April 26, 2007 Posted April 26, 2007 I'm all for this as it helps administrators fluidly give information to new members that my be ignored otherwise.+1 :thumbsup:
Black Prowler Posted April 26, 2007 Posted April 26, 2007 I like it but it should just redirect to the welcome forum so the new member can see important pinned topics that pertain to them as well as thier welcome topic(which is already a seperate mod so no need for it to be a basic feature)...but the redirect is a nice idea. :thumbsup:
Strange_Will Posted April 27, 2007 Posted April 27, 2007 I'd like to be able to re-direct them to the thread/forum they were looking at when they're done signing up.
Ab Erus Posted April 27, 2007 Posted April 27, 2007 I also like the idea of this because at the minute i just have the auto topis upon register set up until then i might add the auto pm upon register mod as well.but this is an a1 sugestion.
sparc Posted April 27, 2007 Posted April 27, 2007 IPS can even make a basic welcome page and place it into the help files.That way it's always there whether you set the option to redirect or not.Plus each board can customize as they please.

sparc Posted April 27, 2007 Posted April 27, 2007 and.....IPS could do it an even simpler way, if they're not interested in doing all the work for a redirect. (leaving it for a future version like 3.0)They could set the welcome link in the Activation Email and then add the "Welcome New Members" to the help files.The only time that would take them is the write up of a basic welcome help file
William Burdine Posted January 18, 2008 Posted January 18, 2008 And another topic dies or will this be in the IP.B v2.4.x series?
Mat Barrie Posted January 18, 2008 Posted January 18, 2008 I'd like to add that this is a neat idea - it's a bit like that first run page that IE throws at you after installing it, except... useful.
