====== New User Prompts ======

In Synchronet v3.21 and later, the configured //New User Prompts// module is executed during [[server:Terminal]] Server new user registrations.

The name of the New User module (by default, ''newuser_prompts'') is configured in [[util:SCFG]]->System->Loadable Modules->New User Prompts.

The default ''[[dir:exec]]/newuser_prompts.js'' module supports the following configuration options in the ''[newuser_prompts]'' section of the ''[[dir:ctrl]]/[[config:modopts.ini]]'' file:

^ Option    ^ Default ^ Description ^
| lang      | false   | Ask the new user if they wish to use an alternate output language (see [[custom:localization]]) |
| autoterm  | true    | Ask the new user if they with to use their auto-detected terminal type |
| backspace | true    | Ask the new user to hit their backspace key to detect the proper backspace key (and possibly PETSCII terminal) |
| mouse     | true    | Ask the new user if their terminal supports mouse interactions and they wish to enable them |
| charset   | true    | Ask the new user if their terminal supports extended-ASCII (CP437) |

===== Customize =====

If you choose to use a customized or entirely different new user prompts module, it is recommended that you use a different module name (not "newuser_prompts") and/or copy the stock new user prompts module to your ''[[dir:mods]]'' directory before modifying.
