Extensión:ConfirmAccount

• Descarga y extrae los archivos en un directorio denominado «ConfirmAccount» dentro de la carpeta extensions/.
  Developers and code contributors should install the extension from Git instead, using:cd extensions/
git clone https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/mediawiki/extensions/ConfirmAccount
• Añade el siguiente código en la parte final de tu archivo LocalSettings.php :

  wfLoadExtension( 'ConfirmAccount' );
  $wgGroupPermissions['*']['createaccount'] = false; // REQUIRED to enforce account requests via this extension
  $wgGroupPermissions['bureaucrat']['createaccount'] = true; // optional to allow account creation by this trusted user group
  

• Ejecuta la secuencia de actualización, que creará automáticamente las tablas de la base de datos que necesita esta extensión.
• Further configure as required.

•   Hecho – Navega a Special:Version en el wiki para verificar que la extensión se haya instalado correctamente.

$wgGroupPermissions['sysop']['createaccount'] = false;

$wgWhitelistRead = [
    'Special:RequestAccount',
    'Main Page'
];

To further categorize users based on their interests, you can set up MediaWiki:Requestaccount-areas. This should be in a format like:

These group numbers are based on $wgAccountRequestTypes. So if 0 is the index for 'authors', then 'authors' interested in a topic will have the group0 text appended to their biography. This can be useful, say, if users can be approved as either authors or editors. Authors can have "category:X authors" where X is a topic, like "mathematics", and editors can have "category:x editors". You can have as many groups as you want, but you need at least one.

To attempt to prevent spam, instead of captchas, blacklists and filters; manually moderate new user registrations, with a simpler Request account. Requesting only a username, email address and brief message. Add the following to LocalSettings.php after the line require_once "$IP/extensions/ConfirmAccount/ConfirmAccount.php";.

 $wgMakeUserPageFromBio = false;
 $wgAutoWelcomeNewUsers = false;
 $wgConfirmAccountRequestFormItems = [
 	'UserName'        => [ 'enabled' => true ],
 	'RealName'        => [ 'enabled' => false ],
 	'Biography'       => [ 'enabled' => false, 'minWords' => 50 ],
 	'AreasOfInterest' => [ 'enabled' => false ],
 	'CV'              => [ 'enabled' => false ],
 	'Notes'           => [ 'enabled' => true ],
 	'Links'           => [ 'enabled' => false ],
 	'TermsOfService'  => [ 'enabled' => false ],
 ];

 

 

Carefully review the form, and proceed to creating the account or rejecting the request.

1. After an account is created, the data input by the user at the time of the request can be referred to by typing the username at Special:UserCredentials

$wgConfirmAccountContact = 'Bureaucrat@domain.com';

This extension allows sending emails to multiple approvers to confirm the account if these users have the confirmaccount-notify permission. This is in addition/alternative to the $wgConfirmAccountContact setting.

This can be achieved (for instance for bureaucrats) by providing them this permission by adding the following to the LocalSettings.php file:

$wgGroupPermissions['bureaucrat']['confirmaccount-notify'] = true;

To combat robot-requests, default settings prevent rejected email accounts from re-requesting an account for a random period of time after rejection. If you want rejected emails to be able to re-request accounts immediately after rejection, or after a fixed wait-time (days, weeks, months, or even years after rejection), apply the following 2 steps:

wfLoadExtension( 'ConfirmAccount' );
$wgRejectedAccountMaxAge = 0;

original code:

$out->addWikiMsg( 'requestaccount-footer' );
}

new code:

$out->addWikiMsg( 'requestaccount-footer' );		
# PRUNE
ConfirmAccount::runAutoMaintenance();
}

If you would like to add a "Request account" login link, the latest version of the extension already adds it for you. However, if that doesn't work, you will need to update to the latest version of your branch of ConfirmAccount from Git. For instance, if you are using MediaWiki 1.35, you should stay on the REL1_35 branch but pull from Git to retrieve the latest changes.

You can edit MediaWiki:loginprompt to remedy this.

Since no one knows the passwords, you may want to use Special:ResetPassword to send them new ones.

This prevents email addresses from re-requesting accounts for an unknown time period. You can override this behavior, and allow immediate re-requests, by forcing prune right before any new Request is submitted. Instructions here.

• Extension is not working anymore with mediawiki 1.43; see here

Make sure that setting(s) related to extension are introduced after the require_once line. Not before, otherwise extension doesn't see these settings and they fail silently. e.g.

wfLoadExtension( 'ConfirmAccount' );
$wgConfirmAccountContact = "admin@example.com";
