I've read at the thread Die, "Welcome" message! Die! at https://forums.cpanel.net/f34/die-welcome-message-die-200122.html how to disable the getting started popup message for a specific account.

Is it possible to configure this globally at the whole server, for existing and future accounts, so no accounts receive the getting started popup?

The spanish translations are so bad that they are pretty useless.

Hello :)

You could follow the instructions from the following post:

Disable Welcome Message

Simply use a command that completes that action for all accounts in the /home directory. This command might work, but it will produce some error output:

Code:
for i in `ls /var/cpanel/users/`;  do echo disable > /home/$i/.cpanel/nvdata/x3_gettingstarted ; done
There are no options to disable this feature globally or for new accounts. I suggest opening a feature request for it via:

Thank you.
