Issue rendering signup form

[toniher]

In UserFieldsCreateTemplate.php execute method the following code:

            if ( !$this->haveData( 'header' ) ) {
                  return '';
            }

prevents form to be drawn.
If commented, everything OK. However, I noticed that Javascript checks (such as mandatory acting on empty fields) do not seem to work, so something should be included to make it happen. Any idea is appreciated.

Maybe try @$this->haveData( 'header' ) === false in order to prevent $this->html( 'header' ) from accessing a non-existing header.

JavaScript from SF? Try loading/register the SF resourcemodule with this template. (maybe something like $this->getSkin()->getOutput()->addModules( ... );

Sorry not reading fully your comment first. I just submitted pull request #10. I cannot access Skin object from $this, so I had to use global $wgOut :/. I removed header reference as well.

Once you get this rolling maybe you could make one or two screen-dumps (see SG or SIL) as it will be easier for users to actually anticipate what this extension can do.

No problem. Right now extension is a bit spartan, and a next step would be offering a better look and options such as 'password by email' (as it's the case with default signup)

The screen-dump has been added to smw.org@SES

Maybe it is best to convert those items into follow-ups.

follow-up for "password by email": see issue #15
