This extension was forked from the NewUserMessage extension. See the documentation for the original extension NewUserMessage.

- Download and place the file(s) in a directory called
NewDuplicateUserMessagein yourextensions/folder. - Add the following code at the bottom of your LocalSettings.php file:
wfLoadExtension( 'NewDuplicateUserMessage' );
- Configure as required.
Done – Navigate to Special:Version on your wiki to verify that the extension is successfully installed.
Configuration
Create the "Template:DuplicateUserWelcome" page on the wiki:
== Duplicate user message ==
You have duplicate accounts: {{{duplicateUsers}}}.
The configuration is the same as the original extension NewUserMessage except instead of "NewUser", use "NewDuplicateUser".
For example:
- Instead of
$wgNewUserSuppressRC = false;, use$wgNewDuplicateUserSuppressRC = false;. - Instead of "MediaWiki:Newusermessage-template", use "MediaWiki:Newduplicateusermessage-template".
