We’ve been working on redesigning the /about page in Discourse and we’re finally ready to make it available to try it out. If you’re logged in to Meta, you can see it right here by heading to /about. Here’s a screenshot:

Notable additions

  • Banner image at the top of the page

  • Extended description that supports HTML/markdown

  • 2-columns layout to reduce the amount of white space on wide screens

  • Expandable/collapsible lists of admins and moderators

  • Visitors and EU visitors stats to enable site owners to comply with the Digital Services Act (DSA). This requires the display_eu_visitor_stats setting to be enabled.

How to enable it

Go to the admin site settings page and add the groups that you want to see the new page to the experimental redesigned about page groups setting. If you want all logged-in users to see the page, add the trust_level_0 group. It’s not possible at the moment to make the new page available to anonymous users.

Configuration

Admins can customize the new /about page via the admin config area for the /about page, which is available at /admin/config/about for all sites.

Feedback

If you encounter a bug with or have suggestions for the new /about page or its admin config area, please let us know right here in this topic.
