Where do I customize the Welcome message?


 

¿ªÔÆÌåÓý

I¡¯m sorry, I¡¯m logged in and creating my 2 groups on groups.io and I cannot find where I would customize a welcome message.? The wiki says my group@¡¯s Settings page has a tab for Member Notices.? Sorry, no, it doesn¡¯t; it doesn¡¯t have tabs at all, it has a list of options in the left margin, none of which is Member Notices.? Where should I be looking??

Admin > Settings
Click on "Member Notices" button near the top of the page
Then click on "+New Notice"
Use the "Notice Type" dropdown menu to select the type of notice
Edit message
Make sure the "Active Message" box is checked
Click on "Add Notice" at bottom of the page

Before I read these instructions I just clicked on the default Welcome message and customized it. I didn't add and activate an entirely new Welcome notification. Have I screwed up?

No, you didn't.
You customized a section of the default Welcome message, which is fine.

If you also want you own Welcome message(s) and/or other types of automated messages, follow the instructions above and explore the different "Notice Types".
