Wikka User Account Modules
Where 'Related user contributions' are mentioned, this is for informational purposes, referring to them for valuable ideas or possible solutions - there is no implied guarantee that these would be included in a future version of Wikka. However, if ideas or code from these were to be used, the authors would of course be credited for their contribution.
This page collects links to actions or other functionality under development providing users with (extended) functionality for handling their accounts and how they use and view the wiki site. The goal is to monitor and discuss the development of what might become an improved "user account" package to release with future versions of WikkaWiki.Registration, login, logout
