What is the recommended way to handle getting started?

Bob Martinez Bob Martinez 2 months ago Resolved

I want to do this the supported way rather than hack around it. What is the recommended approach, and are there pitfalls to avoid?

Links to docs welcome if this is covered somewhere.

This deserves more votes. It is a small change with an outsized impact on day-to-day use.

Go to your profile, then Edit, and scroll to the relevant section. The option you are looking for is there. If the section is hidden, confirm you are on a recent version — some controls were added in 1.4.

Tried this on a staging copy first and it behaved exactly as described. Confident enough to roll it to production now.

Appreciate the clear steps. The dry-run tip in particular saved me from a mistake I would not have caught otherwise.

Thanks for writing this up. Bookmarking it — the kind of thing I will want to reference again in a month.

One caveat for larger communities: keep an eye on the indexes. At a few thousand rows the difference is night and day.
