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.

--- labels: - 'Stage-Alpha' summary: 'XEP-077 IBR registration URL redirect' --- Introduction ============ Registration redirect to out of band URL as described in [XEP-0077: In-Band Registration](http://xmpp.org/extensions/xep-0077.html#redirect). Details ======= The already existing module `mod_register_redirect` doesn’t add a stream feature advertising its capabilities and thus doesn’t work with clients like Conversations. This module tries to take a simpler and more straight forward approach for admins who just want to redirect to an URL and do not need the features provided by `mod_register_redirect`. Usage ===== Set `allow_registration` to `false` and point `register_oob_url` to the URL that handles your registration. Compatibility ============= ----- ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- 0.10 Works ----- -----------------------------------------------------------------------------
