Modify JID or copy user's info

Submitted by Anil K M on Thu, 2015-10-01 19:59

Hi,

Is it possible for the admin to modify the jid (not the domain part), which automatically will update all entries in the database?

Basically the user wants to change his jid but retain all his rosters and groups, was checking if any built in feature is available.

Thanks,

If not possible to modify the jid, is there any method to create a new user with all rosters and group of an existing user?

Thanks,

There is no such feature implemented yet in ejabberd. You may want to create a feature request on ejabberd Github: https://github.com/processone/ejabberd/issues

Though note that XMPP has no standard way to communicate this change, so things would still go wrong if the user has contacts on remote servers.
