Once you log in as admin, you get a SHITTON of settings to manage. Important ones:

  • Admin > Accounts > Registration > Manually Approve New Users
  • Admin > Accounts > Registration > Registration Form > Secret URL (URL will be /register/(secret)/ )
  • Admin > Search > Default Provider > Global Search ON (to add a toggleable global search option)
  • Should I? Admin > Accounts > Registration > Use DNS Domain Check

Clients

The Linux and android clients are tested and working out of the box. How nice.
