-====== Login and Registration =======
-Please note: Logging in is only possible if the Wiki administrator chose to enable [[ACL]] support for the wiki. If ACLs aren't enabled there is no login available and everyone can edit the wiki.
-===== How to Login =====
-Registered users can login using the "Login" functionality. After supplying the correct credentials in the login form, the button changes to "Logout".
-If you choose to select the "Remember Me" checkbox, you will be automatically logged in the next time you revisit the Wiki. Don't do this on a shared computer e.g. at work or in an internet café.
-If you have forgotten your password, you can click the resend password link to have a new password sent to your registered email address. If you can't recall your user name, or your email address has changed, you will need to register again. Note: You can disable this behaviour with the [[config:disableactions]] config option by ticking "Send new password" (or by adding ''resendpwd'' if you're manually editing the config file).
-To be able to log in, your Browser needs to support [[wp>HTTP_cookies|Cookies]].
-Logging out is just a matter of pressing the "Logout" action.
-===== Registration =====
-If the wiki admin didn't disable it, people can register themselves at the wiki. To do so just click on "Login" and follow the "Register" link below to the login form.
-Enter your Userdata and hit register, depending on how the wiki is configured you will either get an auto-generated password by mail (default) or you are allowed to supply your own password in the register form.
-If ''register'' is disabled in the [[config:disableactions]] config option, only the administrator(s) can add users. They can find an "Add new user" link in the "Admin" screen.
-You can update your registration information at any time. Simply login and click on "Update Profile".
-==== Unregister / Delete User ====
-Admins can delete users through the [[plugin:usermanager|User Manager]]. But users cannot delete themselves.
-===== Access Control =====
-Please see [[ACL]] for details on controlling user and usergroup access to [[namespaces]] and [[page|pages]].
