Dify version

v0.7.3

Cloud or Self Hosted

Self Hosted (Docker)

Steps to reproduce

I didn't set up a pre chat that requires users to input some information, but when I first entered the chat box, it showed that I needed to click on start conversation to enter the chat window. I don't want users to click on start conversation again, I want to directly enter the dialog box. I look forward to resolving this issue.

✔️ Expected Behavior

Directly enter the dialog box

❌ Actual Behavior

I need to click on start conversation to enter the chat box

@wupeisheng Hello! I'm here to help you with bug fixes, answer questions, and guide you on how to contribute. If you need assistance, feel free to ask.

To configure the chatbot to directly enter the dialog box without requiring users to click on "Start Conversation," you need to enable the "Conversation Opener" feature during the application orchestration. This feature allows the AI application to automatically initiate the first line of dialogue when a new conversation is created.

Ensure that this feature is enabled in your application settings to achieve the desired behavior ^[1][2].

It has been over a month now. Is there a schedule for this issue? It is very, really important for the user experience. Other products such as Fastgpt and MaxKB are supported by default, and we hope to support them as soon as possible!
