Pitfall of this extension

Summary by Wikinaut

already known and filed as Bug 34357. I admit, that quickly a solution or workaround has to be found. The bug documents, why this problem appeared suddenly (because MediaWiki has changed and now demands a password for e-mail address change.)

But please upgrade your OpenID extension. The present version is much better and has an improved Preferences tab where you can manage your OpenIDs.

I've created a login on a wiki via OpenID (using MyOpenID). Now when I go to Special:ChangeEmail it doesn't accept any password and if I go to Special:PasswordReset it can't because no email is set. I've tried ticking all in preferences for updating from OpenID every time I log in but that hasn't helped. MediaWiki 1.19.2 and OpenID 1.004 20120427.

Thanks for reporting. The way you decribed is also what I would recommend, but is may not be always possible to add further OpenID.
