FWIW, the way Dan/Caveman/Editor/Coyote got around the spaces-in-usernames problem using ZAP authentication (at my suggestion) was to run the MakePageName function on whatever value is submitted during registration or login. The reasoning was that since [[~username]] converts to [[Profiles/Username]], then it makes no sense for username to be anything other than a valid page name -- anything else will break the ~ links. The beauty is that a user doesn't have to remember the capitalization or spacing of his or her username, but can log in as PSMueller P.S. Mueller p s mueller or even pS.mueller equivalently. So you can actually put a username reminder on the login form, telling people to "type your first and last names" or whatever the formulation is. "psmueller", of course, is a different user. I highly recommend adopting the same function in AuthUser. --Ben S. _______________________________________________ pmwiki-users mailing list [email protected] http://www.pmichaud.com/mailman/listinfo/pmwiki-users
