These files are not Jinja2 templates, so there's no reason that they needed to be inside `templates/zerver`. Moving them to the top level reflects their importance and also makes it feel nicer to work on editing the help center content, without it being unnecessary buried deep in the codebase.

# Configure default settings for new users
|
|
|
|
{!admin-only.md!}
|
|
|
|
Organization administrators can configure the default values of
|
|
personal preference settings for new users joining the
|
|
organization. This can help seamlessly customize the Zulip experience
|
|
to match how the organization in question is using Zulip.
|
|
|
|
Existing users' preferences cannot be modified by administrators, and
|
|
users will be able to customize their own settings once they
|
|
join. Administrators can customize defaults for all personal
|
|
preference settings, including the following:
|
|
|
|
* Privacy settings, including:
|
|
* [Displaying availability to other users](/help/status-and-availability)
|
|
* [Allowing others to see when the user has read messages](/help/read-receipts)
|
|
* Display settings, including:
|
|
* Default view ([Recent conversations](/help/recent-conversations) vs.
|
|
[All messages](/help/reading-strategies#all-messages))
|
|
* [Light theme vs. dark theme](/help/dark-theme)
|
|
* [Emoji theme](/help/emoji-and-emoticons#change-your-emoji-set)
|
|
* Notification settings, including:
|
|
* [What types of messages trigger notifications][default-notifications]
|
|
* [Configurations for email notifications](/help/email-notifications)
|
|
|
|
[default-notifications]: /help/stream-notifications#set-default-notifications-for-all-streams
