Status for Mediawiki4Intranet distribution:
- Inclusion date: 2013-12-03* Disabled in the default configuration
- Included version: newest available
- Improvement status: Created by MediaWiki4Intranet project
Usage
Just install. The extension will modify the standard MediaWiki login form allowing to use email in the "username:" field.
Installation
- Apply the patch to MediaWiki code:
- cd <YOUR_WIKI_DIRECTORY>
- patch -p1 < extensions/LoginByEmail/LoginByEmail.diff
- Include extension into your LocalSettings.php - add the line:
- require_once("$IP/extensions/LoginByEmail/LoginByEmail.php");
- Optionally you can allow "wrong password" errors for email login with:
- $wgLoginByEmailDiscloseExistence = true;
- Please note it's a less secure behaviour because it allows to check if an arbitrary email is registered in your wiki.
