Note that I am not saying that those lines exist in anyone's LocalSettings.php, I'm just saying what the permissions appear to be when I used run a script that dumps out the permissions: User::groupHasPermission( 'user', $perm ) Note that when I changed the perms and added a check for a specific bureaucrat/sysop -- with $user->isAllowed( 'editmyoptions' ) -- the value of returned changed depending on the settings. > > $wgGroupPermissions['*']['editmyoptions'] = false; > > $wgGroupPermissions['user']['editmyoptions'] = true; > > No, what they need to do is not screw with the assignments for editmyoptions > and the other 'my' permissions at all. Then those options should be removed.

Please do not talk to me like I'm your child. As far as I can tell, I haven't done anything to merit this tone. But you're right: the fact is that it isn't "editmyoptions" that causes the problem. I'm not familiar with these new permissions and that was the first one that jumped out at me. Upon closer examination, it is "editmyprivateinfo" that blocks confirming email. I've retitled this bug accordingly. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
