Welcome Pack

Install and activate it then visit your admin area Dashboard -> Settings -> Welcome Pack

It gives you following features and every feature has an on/off option:

1. Customise the emails sent by BuddyPress, either in plain text or rich HTML versions. To change the emails, visit the Dashboard -> Emails page.
2. Invite the new user to become friends with certain members. It’s a great way of teaching people how the friend acceptance process works on your site, and how they can use friendships to filter activity streams.
3. Ask the new user if they’d like to join a group. You could use this to invite all new users on your site to join a support group, to keep all of your frequently asked questions in the same place.
4. When the new user logs into your site for the very first time, use Start Page to redirect them anywhere you’d like. This complements the Welcome Message fantastically; create a page or blog post which showcases the features of your site.
5. Send the newly-registered user a private message; use this to welcome people to your site and help them get started.
