This option can create a new user in the Wiki. It will create a random password and send the user details to the users email address. A confirm emailaddress email will also be send. This functionality is disabled by default and can be enabled by setting the $wgFlexFormConfig['can_create_user'] = true; , see DevOps:Doc/FlexForm/2.0/Installation_of_FlexForm . The text for the email is this Language message : flexform-createuser-email, so it can be easily changed in your wiki by creating the page : MediaWiki:flexform-createuser-email. The original i18n message is in HTML as the email will be send in HTML format  : "Dear $1,<br><br>We have created a new account for you.<br><br>You can now login with the following credentials.<br><br>Username:<br>$2<br><br>Password:<br>$3<br><br>You should log in and choose a new password.."

Furthermore, take care where you show such a form. Also it is a good idea to add reCaptcha to your form if you let anonymous users create accounts. As of version 2.2.15 _createuser has been changed to work a bit differently, but it is still backwards compatible. 50000 0 plainlist 1 [[:DevOps:Doc/FlexForm/2.0/CreateUser]] Doc/FlexForm/2.0/CreateUser# QUERY8be2be16b5da5cb097f841dced795db5
