[Mediawiki-l] How to allow user registration ?

[Aaron Gray]

Hi,

I have created a wiki without user registration enabled.

How do I (re)enable and disable user registration ?

Also how do I sign up new users on a restricted access wiki with no user
self registration ?

Many thanks in advance,

Aaron

In LocalSettings.php, remove the line
"$wgGroupPermissions['*']['createaccount'] = false;" or change "false"
to "true". See
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Manual:Preventing_access#Restrict_account_creation
for more information.

hi,
.../index.php?title=Special:UserLogin&type=signup

you can create new accounts with a temporary password.
every new registrated user should change this password.

best regards
