Description
This plugin provides a simple user management functionality. It can login or register users, let them edit their profiles and takes care of forgotten passwords and sending welcome emails. All of it's contents can be managed through the Static Content section. Also it can be extended to support other types of login/registration functionality - like Facebook connect or Browser ID. BaseUser can be configured to bring the user to your custom pages after successful registration or login and it nicely plays together with BaseDecoration by using the "meta-menu" hook to show some user welcome text and user-related menus as well as decorating itself completely with it.
