Registration

To start using a matteridge instance, you need to create an account by registering with it. The instance has a unique XMPP (aka JID) address, which is usually just a domain name (e.g., “mattermost.example.org”), without a username or local part.

There are two ways to register, depending on your client:

  • If your client supports adhoc commands (such as Movim, Gajim, or Cheogram), you can use the “Register” command with the matteridge instance’s address.

  • If your client does not support adhoc commands (such as Conversations), you can register by sending a text message that says “register” to the matteridge instance’s address.
