Inviting a user

The invitation page opens via the email icon in the user administration.

An invitation has the following features:

  • Invited users receive an invitation email.
  • The invitation email contains a link to the wiki. The invited person can use this link to choose a username and password.
  • After the user account has been created by the invited person, there is no special group assignment. The permissions of the general group "user" are assigned to the user account.

Invitation page

The invitation page allows to send an email invitation to new users.

Creating user accounts on behalf of users

If an administrator sends out invitations to users to create their own accounts, users can freely choose their username and passwords. As an alternative, administrators can directly create users accounts via the page Special:CreateAccount. In this process, users receive an email with a random temporary password, but with a username that was created by the administrator.
