Welcome Message Popup

The welcome message feature allows you to display a personalized message to students when they access a lesson (post) page.
This message does not appear on the dashboard page.

Setting a Custom Welcome Message

To add a custom welcome message for a specific lesson:

• Open the post edit page (where you set the lesson’s title, video, and description).
• Add a #welcome-message: tag at the bottom of the post-body.
• Example: #welcome-message: Welcome to this lesson!

The content following the #welcome-message: tag will replace the {custom-message} placeholder in the “Message Template” (see below).

You may use multiline content and include HTML markup

When the “Show Only if a Custom Message is Included in the Post” option is enabled, the popup will only appear if the post contains a #welcome-message tag.
If this option is disabled and no custom message is provided, the "Default Custom Message" (see below) will be displayed instead.

Message Template

The message template defines how the welcome message will look and allows for dynamic placeholders.
Placeholders include:

• {post-title}: The title of the current lesson.
• {parent-module}: The parent module for the lesson.
• {main-module}: Even if the direct parent is a sub-module, this tag will be replaced with the main module the sub-module belongs to.
• {user-first-name}, {user-last-name}, {user-full-name}: The student’s name.

Default Custom Message

If no #welcome-message: tag is included, the Default Custom Message will be used to replace the {custom-message} placeholder, provided the “Show Only if a Custom Message is Included in the Post” option is unchecked.

Button Settings

You can include a close button at the bottom of the popup message. Uncheck the “Include Button” option if you prefer not to display it.

Edit Mode

Enable this option to preview and customize the message in the page builder. Disable it after completing your edits.

Disable Welcome Message

This option completely disables the popup, ensuring it does not appear at any time.
