mod_invites_register_api: Use set_password() for password resets Previously the code relied on the (weird) behaviour of create_user(), which would update the password for a user account if it already existed. This has several issues, and we plan to deprecate this behaviour of create_user(). The larger issue is that this route does not trigger the user-password-changed event, which can be a security problem. For example, it did not disconnect existing user sessions (this occurs in mod_c2s in response to the event). Switching to set_password() is the right thing to do.

Introduction
============

This module provides a console over XMPP. All the commands of the
mod\_admin\_telnet module are available from an XMPP client.

Only the Prosody admins (see the *admins* list in the Prosody
configuration file) can use this console.

Installation
============

Copy the mod\_admin\_message directory into a directory Prosody will
check for plugins (cf. [Installing
modules](http://prosody.im/doc/installing_modules)) and set up a
component:

    Component "console@example.com" "admin_message"

"console@example.com" is the identifier of the XMPP console.
