Bug ID: 56660
Summary: Use autocreate permission to create new users
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: master
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: OpenID
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
Currently, OpenID extension check and use standard 'createaccount' permission
to create mediawiki users for new users coming from OpenID authenticate.
This works OK unless I want to restrict anonymous account creation only to
OpenID users and do not let anonymous users to create a new user via standard
New user form. I had to set $wgOpenIDLoginOnly to true to achieve what I want,
but it is suboptimal because existing non-openid users are not able to
authenticate without OpenID.
This could be solved by using AuthPlugin capabilities
(http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/AuthPlugin) and creating new users with
'autocreate' permission so that I can configure mediawiki to only allow auth
plugins like OpenID to create new users and forbid creating new users by
anonymous users.
