[center]Welcome System Configuration[/center]
---------------------------------------------------------
The welcome system is a bot that will post a topic welcoming new
members to the forum every time someone joins the forum.
---------------------------------------------------------
-Welcome Topic Settings-
Forum: Select the forum that you want the welcome topics posted
in.
Poster Name: Who will post the welcome topics. Does not need to
be a member. If it is not a member the poster will appear as a
guest.
-Save Settings-
---------------------------------------------------------
-Add a topic-
Under "Topic Subject | Options" click on the "Add Topic" link.
On the topic creator, you can do anything you can with a normal
topic, including BBC codes, smileys, images, etc. You can also
put "[username]" in any part of the topic body or title and the
person's username will appear.
---------------------------------------------------------
After you have created at least one topic, two options will
appear: Edit Topic and Delete
Edit Topic: Will allow you to go back to the topic and change
things, again using all posting features available for a normal
post.
Delete: Will delete the topic from the list of welcome topics.
---------------------------------------------------------
From here, every time a new member joins the forum, the topic
will be posted. If you would like multiple topics, create more
and one will be randomly selected each time a new member joins.
