[xwiki-users] Private user authentication
I've freshly installed XE 1.8.1 and am pleased to see that the email registration process has been fixed. I want to use XE for an admin wiki in a school environment and do not wish to have students being able to register. Ideally, I would like to have users self-register and then have to wait for admin approval to activate account. Is there anyway to do this with XE? Otherwise, what is the best strategy for restricting user registration? Thanks Chris Ellis

The new Getting Started guide might help you: http://enterprise.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/GettingStarted/ And more specifically: http://enterprise.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/GettingStarted/SettingUserRights Also this information is supposed to be here too but it's not complete: http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Configuration#HWikiAcces... It's not linked from anywhere yet but Guillaume who's worked on it should do that real soon. Thanks -Vincent

Note that this section is being refactored into http://platform.xwiki.org/xwiki/bin/view/AdminGuide/Access+Rights but this new page is currently not correctly explained and it's hard to understand anything. Guillaume is working on it. Thanks -Vincent
