What I need is to let the user sign up by himself to the system , he should receive an email into his email , like all normal sign up in any website , I don't need to create webscript , I just want to change login forum to other that had a sign up in the same forum . you may look at that link to see

This is quite a complex problem that you're trying to solve here, and probably not something that can easily be answered in a forum. The example you've posted is from the Alfresco Cloud service and I can tell you that we've used workflows to implement that solution (and there are lots of specific cases that this addresses such as repeated requests to join, validation of domain, expiry of activity, e-mail handling for confirmation, rejection, reminder, etc. There are almost certainly simpler, but less secure/reliable ways of implementing a solution though.

I implemented a registration procedure by creating a separate, non-authenticated page in Alfresco. I had a link on the Login form, something like "New here? Register for an account", pointing to that page. That page connected to admin-executed, non-authenticated backend webscript that created the user account, returned a login ticket etc. There are a few caveats though, so I'll write a longer post about it and let you know how I-ve done it here.

I've been thinking of doing that blog post for a while now, but have been postponing, and this week I have some extra time so I can finally get about it.

(Just in case I don't remember to post it here, check my blog, zlayer.net within the next few days.
