The EditUser extension displays a preferences form (like the one in Special:Preferences, Special:EditUser) that allows editing the preferences of other users.
This extension cannot be used to change a user's password or e-mail address.
Usage
You can call the page via Special:EditUser/username to directly edit a user, or Special:EditUser to display a search form. Users with the edituser-exempt permission cannot be edited via this form.
Installation
- Download and place the file(s) in a directory called
EditUserin yourextensions/folder. - Add the following code at the bottom of your LocalSettings.php file:
wfLoadExtension( 'EditUser' );
Done – Navigate to Special:Version on your wiki to verify that the extension is successfully installed.
