Posted April 26, 200718 yr 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. :)
April 26, 200718 yr I'm all for this as it helps administrators fluidly give information to new members that my be ignored otherwise.+1 :thumbsup:
April 26, 200718 yr 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:
April 27, 200718 yr I'd like to be able to re-direct them to the thread/forum they were looking at when they're done signing up.
April 27, 200718 yr 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.
April 27, 200718 yr 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.

April 27, 200718 yr 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
January 18, 200817 yr 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.
