Email notice at user registration / Customization of registration form

Hi Aaron,

I successfully added ConfirmAccount to my MediaWiki installations - thanks for that. But I have three questions:

• Can I as the administrator get an email notification when someone registers? It happens very unfrequently, so I won't check very often, but if someone registers, I don't want him to wait for confirmation.
• Can I customize the registration form content? I don't need all the sections, they will only confuse the users, it will be sufficient to only have user name, email and maybe the bio.
• Can I let the user choose his password right at the registrarion instead of generating one for him and asking him to change it?

Thanks, Alex

Hi again,

haven't had time to answer or is my request badly placed?

• Yes, after they confirm their account, see $wgConfirmAccountContact.
• See ConfirmAccount.config.php, you can cut down some of the form complexity with the options there.
• No.

Last time I tried to respond I was having network problems.
