ConfirmAccount configuration
From Klaus' wiki
The ConfirmAccount is a plug-in for MediaWikis forcing a potential user to fill in a form and the content will be sent to the administrator.
cd <wiki-directory>/extensions/ tar zxvf ../../ConfirmAccount-MW1.16-r62787.tar.gz cd ConfirmAccount/ vi ConfirmAccount.sql # Change the database in question using # '':1,$s/\/\*\$wgDBprefix\*\//<database in question>_/g'' mysql -h localhost -u root -p <database in question> <ConfirmAccount.sql cd ../.. vi LocalSettings.php
In the LocalSettings.php insert these lines:
# Force a proper creation of user accounts - by KK 2011 02 21 $wgConfirmAccountContact[] = 'klausk@hih.au.dk'; require_once("$IP/extensions/ConfirmAccount/SpecialConfirmAccount.php");
Test, test and test.
