Make sure you have set up email function correctly.

yaa, i follow the instruction.. but the problem is sometimes i received the confirmation email and i try it on the other time i didn't got any incoming confirmation email.

when i got the email and i click the confirmation link the wiki said that the link was expired.

i don't know how to fixed it. pls i need help.

thankyou.

Which MediaWiki version are you using?

i'm using Mediawiki 1.30.0.

what's the problem?

thank you

You said that sometimes you get the email and sometimes you don't. Did you check your spam folder when you didn't get it?

i always check the spam folder but still no incoming confirmation email.

How is your wiki configured to send email? What operating system is it running on?

Change from "LocalSettings.php" setting

$wgEnableUserEmail

$wgPasswordSender

Then you will receive a confirmation message
