I don't even get the email address field or the By Email button from the Create an Account of Login page. Simply: Username and Password fields, and the Login button.

I've now changed it to say: Go to [[Special:Userlogin]], when logged in as a sysop, then click on "Create an account" to get to the account creation form. Enter a username and an email address, and click the "by email" button. The account will be created with a random password which is then emailed to the given address.

crobledo(a)ocregister.com: the You're still on the wrong page. To do this: 1. Make sure you're logged in as a sysop. If you're not, it won't work. 2. Go to [[Special:Userlogin]]. 3. It should say "Don't have a login? [[Create an account]]." under the "Log in" heading. 4. Click "[[Create an account]]". 5. Now you should be on the form with Username, Password, Retype password, Your email, Your real name, and the "by email" button. If it doesn't work, maybe LDAP overrides this? Ian
