# Registration Plugin Readme

## Overview

The registration plugin allows admins to configure various actions whenever a new user creates an account.

## Installation

Copy the registration.jar into the plugins directory of your Jive Messenger installation. The plugin will then be automatically deployed. To upgrade to a new version, copy the new registration.jar file over the existing file.

## Configuration

The registration plugin is configured via the "Registration Properties" sidebar item located in the "Users" sidebar item under the "Users/Groups" tab in the Jive Messenger Admin Console. By default, after the registration plugin has been deployed all of its features are disabled. To enable or disable a feature of the plugin select the checkbox next to the feature you want to enable and then click on the "Save Settings" button. The registration plugin has three items that can be configured:

- Registration Notification - Contacts can be configured to receive an instant message and/or email to notify them whenever a new user registers.
- Welcome Message - A message that will be sent to a user when they first register.
- Default Group - A group that all users will be added to when they first register.

## Using the Plugin

Presently, after the registration plugin has been configured nothing else needs to be done to use it.
