Our wiki is running over the intranet. Authentication is done via LDAp plugin. How can we set the preferences for all users at one go- like "Add pages I create to my watchlist", "Email me when pages in my watchlist changes", etc. to true for all users at one go?
Can't do this with the plugin (currently). Maybe there is a way to do this through other means? You may be able to modify the plugin, adding the settings you want into initUser, and updateUser methods.
Also I want to treat all emailids as verified, without the verification process. How can that be achieved?
Turn off email verification (don't remember the exact MediaWiki option), and set:
$wgLDAPRetrievePrefs = array("domain"=>true)
V/r,
