Welcome message issue
Good afternoon I have an issue with welcome message.
A list owner is requesting to update the welcome message for only one of their lists. They are requesting to change the default text and insert additional URLs pointing to sites related to their list. I know there is a URI field that you may include a web page. But this doesn't work and gets ignored.
- is there a mailman cli option to update the default template for a single list?
I couldn't find it in WUI. I reviewed all parameters and variables of the list and couldn't find one that might be related to it.
We are running an old version of Mailman 3.
Thanks Mohsen

If you are referring to the uri field in the template table this
should work if the name is list:user:notice:welcome and the
context is the list_id of the target list.

There is no specific cli option. A site admin can address this by creating a custom template at Mailman's var/templates/lists/LIST_ID/LC/list:user:notice:welcome.txt where LIST_ID is the desired lists ID and LC is the preferred language.
The list owner can create a custom list:user:notice:welcome template via Postorius.
I couldn't find it in WUI.
Do you mean GUI? If so, since at least Postorius 1.2.0 there has been a
Templates choice in the second level nav in the lists view.
I reviewed all parameters and variables of the list and couldn't find one that might be related to it.

Thank you Mark! You are helpful as always.
I am running: Postorius Version 1.1.2
That explains the issue.
