XF 1.5 How to send a conversation to new members

[flowerpot132]

How do I do this using the new feature in 1.5 please.

So once they are approved they get a conversation in their inbox from us welcoming them to the site etc.

Can it be timed to be say 2 hours after they are approved?

Many thanks

You'd set this up using the "New User Welcome" option's conversation setting. It will be sent as soon as their account becomes valid; it cannot be delayed.

You might like this add-on:

By default the email is sent on top of the hour.

What would be the settings for this please?

I have played around with it, but not sure what to tick for just new users??

I'm unsure what you're showing? Is that from the add-on referenced? If so, you should post in the add-on's thread.

If that's just the general message user's tool, that's not for this purpose. You need to use the option I mentioned.

Ah yes. Where is that please? forum/admin.php?users/message

You can use the control panel search in the upper right corner for the option name I gave and it'll take you directly there.

Any way to send a test one first? We are writing it in html.

If you're doing a conversation, it would need to be in BB code. (If it's an email, then you can choose text or HTML.)

But the only option would be to do a test registration.
