Odds are your getting hammered by spambots. If you want to test create a
new account and see if that account has any issues
Duh - obvious.. i should have thought of creating a test account before.
Ok, test account created, I am now in groups:-
Member of groups: Autoconfirmed users, Users
However, i can not create any new pages or edit the main page (the
wiki just had the main/start page only).
When i go here in my admin account :- index.php?title=Special:ListGroupRights
the group (all) and USERS can create discussion pages, and Create
pages (which are not discussion pages).
the group Autoconfirmed users can Edit semi-protected pages.
If i can create pages, why cant i create any pages in my test account ?
Also - When this is fixed, is there a way to
a) edit the wiki script to use my own email system ?
b) send an email to ALL users to re-check their accounts & see their
new settings...
i've got a php script that sends emails via SMTP / passwords. if i can
direct the wiki emails via that. it will be good.

Hello, I'm the admin of a mediawiki, &
have posted to an incorrect
thread & have been redirected here...
My main initial queries is/are
a) I occasionally check my wiki & see there are dozens / hundreds of
people signing up as users - but no one is creating any pages.
is there a place i can see that can check that people CAN create pages
- but they are pending / needing approval to be published ?
i'm guessing that people create new accounts but cant do anything. how
do i check ?
b) is there something i can do to force the wiki to send an email to
the admin (me) - to check that i am receiving emails. (I periodically
forget about this wiki as i'm not getting anything).
c) where do i (if i can) edit the script to use my own mailing process
instead of the default process to send emails.
