you just need to ADD it after the code. You dont delete the original code. "cut" there symbolize where the code block begins and ends...
I didnt include the content of the "post_welcome_thread" template. You can design it as you like. Simply use a plain text message. It will be the message of your welcome thread. So for example use something like that:
--------------
