I plan on managing the blocked accounts based on username with this list: Special:BlockList. Mediawiki-l Delete passive users Thompson, Graeme (AELE) Graeme.Thompson at Wed Oct 12 11:02. $wgSharedTables = array( 'user', 'user_groups', 'account_requests', 'account_credentials', 'ipblocks') Usermerge will only merge 2 accounts at a time so this will take me forever to do 1000. I want to delete these 1000 accounts but from what ive searched it isnt so easy. I have now setup a way to prevent further attacks. I set up the shared tables and shared database for global users in my LocalSettings.php file: $wgSharedDB = 'up_commonusers' My site was recently hit up with spambots and they have created 1000 user accounts. Thanks all for the suggestions! I ended up using a global ipblocks table and Extension:Lockout to block users from logging in, effectively disabling their accounts. I'm open to ideas! Hopefully this all makes sense, thanks in advance! The idea here is to create an 'inactive' permission and manage accounts globally with that permission group. Shared Permissions - I took a look at a couple extensions that allow global permissions, but many of them are not stable or in beta, for example: SharedUserRights. Click the delete action to delete the page. If you mouse over the triangle you should see 'delete', 'move', 'protect' and 'watch'. To find the action menu, look for a down arrow or triangle next to the 'View History' tab. IP Blocking - I can't use this since the multiple users may access the wiki from the same IP, at a work station or computer lab.Ī hook on login - Could possibly use a hook (UserLoginComplete) when the user logs in, then log them out immediately based on a flag set in the database. Sysops should see a delete tab or action menu option at the top of every page.
The special pages associated with the extension are all broken because of this. This setup does not take into account table prefixes, which we use extensively. you cannot delete a user A without having merged the user A to B. I got as far as migrating my users into the centralauth global user table. Type: MediaWiki, Category: Administration. The CentralAuth extension - This is pretty complicated to set up for a wiki family and is tied very closely to the wikipedia core development. I have investigated a couple different ways of disabling a user account, but I'm not sure which option to choose. We do not have an elegant way of disabling any of the users that have left the program, in the past we have been able to change their passwords, but this is not a lasting solution for the future. I have a wiki family that has several thousand users that I need to manage.
