Administrators can use this topic to register (i.e. create logins and user topics) for a group of people in one batch.
Unlike normal registration the administrator is assumed to have correct e-mail addresses for the users, so no verification is required. Note that the new users are not notified that they have an account. This is so you can prepare and verify the accounts before announcing them. To announce them use the BulkResetPassword feature: this will assign a new random password and notify users.Note: this is an administrator job - only admistrators can run this.
If you are administrator, you will take these actions:Below are the details.
Password
field is not included, then use the BulkResetPassword topic to assign new passwords.
If a password is included, it must be a valid password (> minimum length, etc.)
<noautolink> %EDITTABLE{}% | FirstName | LastName | Email | WikiName | | Test | User | you@your.domain | TestUser | </noautolink>Usage:
You can write additional data to the new user topics. Do this by enhancing the user table with additional field names as table headers.
Any fields you define in this table will end up in the User's topic. If a form (such as UserForm) is attached to NewUserTemplate then the data will go in as META:FIELDS, meaning that you can use SEARCH formfield constructs to search. If you use the UserForm then ensure that it contains all the fields you define here. Otherwise they will disappear when the user edits their home topic!WikiName
