When using Cloudron user management non-cloudron users cannot reset password
-
@ericyu00 @jdaviescoates I left a note in the github issue. It seems that LDAP login (and other login methods like pam login) are incompatible with external registration.
I will put this in Cloudron's post install message as well.
-
@girish can you preselect the non-cloudron user management as default for these apps that people likely just click through to install and end up in trouble later?
@robi mm, I guess it depends on the use case. For our instance, we actually want user management. Don't want external users to register (under @cloudron.io namespace).
But I do agree. Ideally, we can put some subtext that provides the implications. Maybe upstream will fix the issue though and we don't need to anything as well.

Just tested this now. non-cloudron users are able to get email in my instance atleast. Testing it a bit more.

yeah, as I said in the OP
"if you do use Cloudron user management external users can register, but they then they can't reset their password!"

This one took a bit of time to narrow. It seems there are two things: password recovery and confirmation instructions. The former works. The latter doesn't work after sign up. Maybe that's expected.

@jdaviescoates There's "Forgot your password" and "Didn't receive confirmation instructions" . For me the former works but the latter doesn't.
For "Forgot your password", I get the email. But clicking on the link in the email doesn't work.
@girish hello!
Any updates regarding this issue? I setted up an instance and now we have more than 300 users, but without having the possibility to reset the password looks like we need close our server and re-setup it. It is a bad way for us...Do you have like an instruction on how to move users from the old instance (with Cloudrone user management) to the new one (with inapp Mastodon user management)?

@girish said in Opening Up Registration:
Note that if you want to allow external users, it might be a good idea to install mastodon without Cloudron user management. That way the user handles of external users and the Cloudron usernames won't conflict.
Also, I've just discovered that if you do use Cloudron user management external users can register, but they then they can't reset their password!
When trying to reset their passwords users are just presented with this:
Is there anyway to resolve this?
How can I enable non-Cloudron user to be able reset their passwords? Or is it now impossible to do so given I chose Cloudron user management during installation?
I'm really hoping I wont have to throw my whole network away and start again from scratch? (but I'm guessing perhaps I will
)
