How do I change or remove the default message that are at the top of the Files Section. when a new account is opened.

Welcome to Nextcloud! :iphone: :cloud: :computer:

Here you can add a description or any other info relevant for the folder. It will show as a “Readme.md” and in the web interface also embedded nicely up at the top.

Kind Regards,

Copy the core/skeleton dir and then define the path to your new skeletondirectory in your config.php file e.g. 'skeletondirectory' => '/home/nextcloud/skeleton',

Thank you very much.

Perhaps a small note. This is the file “Readme.md” or also “readme.md”. This is the “folder description” and the user can directly edit the file in the folder view. Maybe a nice feature or not. Every folder can have such a file. Also the user can disable “folder discription” in the file settings. Alternatively, the user can simply delete or rename the file.
