How to edit NC web page

Good morning to all,
I have installed the NC v.29.0.7 on ubuntu 22.04
I’m new in NC and I have a little question: how I can edit the default web page.
I have to hide/delete the “welcome nextcloud” message text and editor from the first page:

How can I do this?
Thanks.

Have a look at the README.md. That file should contain the header.

Check that. Removing the README will drop that part of the page (or you can add custom comments).

If you want to edit or delete the standard README.md for new Nextlcoud users:

For the future it would be better to use Ubuntu 24.04 LTS.

Thanks for your answer.
Where is located the README.md file? (because with sudo find / -name “README.md” I have find it many).
Thanks.

Edit the file in Nextcloud GUI itself. For all new users you can change

https://docs.nextcloud.com/server/latest/admin_manual/configuration_files/default_files_configuration.html

There are two ways to do this:

  1. Per user:
    Click on the Files Settings gear in the bottom left corner under

    • “Additional settings”

    uncheck

    • “Show folder description”
  2. Globally for ALL users with this occ command:

    occ config:app:set text workspace_available --value=0
    

    like described here in the Admin-Manual.
    If it is turned off globally, the option to choose “Show folder description” under “Additional settings” disappears.

hth.


Much and good luck,
