I've verified for the new account: Testaccount. The manual registration a new wiki user works fine: * Email with a random password has been sent. I received it normal. * When I first login as Testaccount with this password, Wiki offers me change the password and shows me the form for it. * The password is changed successfully, the login with the new password is successfully too, but with the second trying. First Wiki showed me "LogOut" page (http://wiki.openoffice.org/w/index.php?title=Special:UserLogout)
Probably, new users have some problems when Wiki not immediately shows the data of the user after login, but it can happen in case of any method of the registration. -- Regards, Helen 2012/12/10 janI <j...@apache.org>: > Some users think they need an account just to read, but that might not be > the case with these users. > > Helen: you have the procedure in your head, could you not simulate a new > user, and verify it works ? > > I have no problem with the old automated procedure, as long as sysop > understand the risk of a new spam attack (which are higher then 98%, now > they know we can be attacked). > > Jan I. > > > On 10 December 2012 18:46, helen <helenruss...@gmail.com> wrote: > >> Hello Jan, all. >> >> 10.12.2012 22:33, janI пишет: >> >> The most efficient measure is a manual creation, and if I count correctly >>> we talk about less than 10 new users in a month. >>> >>> >>> I think the manual registration for new wiki users is not good. >> >> We have created 12 new user accounts since 24 November.
