Hi,

We want to disable Signup for new users in mediawiki and want to add them into database manually. for this we want to understand the sequence of function used to store a new user into mediawiki database. we looked this:- includes/GlobalFunctions.php

function wfEncryptPassword( $userid, $password ) { global $wgPasswordSalt; $p = md5( $password);

if($wgPasswordSalt) return md5( "{$userid}-{$p}" ); else return $p; }

But need to know that where $wgPasswordSalt set its value and finally where this function called to get encryted password.

Can you suggest sequence of storing a new user in mediawiki as this will be of great help.

Thank you
