Theming location in admin is counterintuitive #4

  1. For me have the option at theming is counterintuitive, In your defense, you have written it in the repo description, still haven't read it in moment of installing.

Well I don't know. It seems ok to me to put it where the admins can also set the slogan, instance name etc... Do you have a suggestion for a better location?

Well, but it's still text and not a theming/template thing.

For me, I have an app installed for "Notes on login screeen", this app I can find at "Additional settings"-page. Similar use case, specific information for the user, for me, that makes sense.

Alternatively Groupware could be a good page, but maybe it's just to wait for a specific dashboard page.

Hello,

Thank you for making this Welcome app available. My two cents on this issue...

I use Nextcloud in a multi-tenant situation so each user group would want to have the ability to set their own Welcome page.

I would prefer that the Welcome App provide the ability for an Admin to set the "One" Welcome page from Settings > Theming and within Theming a radio button be available where Admin's can allow users to set their own Welcome page in personal settings. In this way Nextcloud instances for a single company can have Admins use a global Welcome page for their employees, but for Nextclouds where multi-tenant is used each user can set their own Welcome page. I would suggest that within Settings > Personal the Welcome App has within either Accessibility or Additional Settings the ability to point to the Welcome page they want to use for their Dashboard.

Thank you.
