How do I verify that a user created an account?
Using the wiki invite feature, how do I confirm that someone has registered with pbwiki or with my wiki? I have a list of students that need to edit the wiki as part of our class webpage. I have collected their emails. I sent out invites to their emails. that gave me a list of people. I don't see how to tell if they've received the email, created a pbwiki account, and then added our class wiki to their account and are ready to start editing and creating pages.
I'd like to resend the invite, but that requires removing them from the list and resending. I don't want to remove someone that has already registered. So how can I tell who's registered and who isn't?

Inappropriate?Hi KBCC-
I believe that you can tell who has registered on the users page (located in wiki settings).
Those who have created an account are listed in bold text, have a profile picture and a permission level.
Those who haven't yet created an account are also listed but do not have a profile picture and have the word "(invited)" next to their email address.
This is the case on a number of my wikis -- however I don't know if this is the official answer.
On the flip side, you can ask everyone who has registered to create a personal page and edit it with some information about the class project. That way you know that they are on the site, and they understand how to use it.

Inappropriate?Thanks for the reply. Everyone has a contributor level listing, right when I first invite them. There is also no difference in bolding or the display of their name. For people who are invitied but definitely have not registered, there is not a mark of 'invited' next to their email.
I've been having them create their own profile pages from the start, it is definitely a good way to keep track of things. A nice feature would be to be able to click on their name from the users list, and be taken to their page on my wiki (but of course that would require that they either make it have exactly the same page title as their name is in the list, or that they be given an option to link to their profile page after they've created it.
The simplest thing would be to have their information, then have two columns to check, one for 'they have a pbwiki account somewhere' and another for 'they have logged into this particular wiki'
