+ 1 for Name only option.
What I do is create an extra field:
auth.settings.extra_fields['auth_user'] = [ Field('u_name') ]
Then define tables without "username" because I want to use email for login:
auth.define_tables(username=False, signature=True)
Then hide the first and last names by making them unreadable and unwritable:
auth.settings.table_user.first_name.writable =
auth.settings.table_user.first_name.readable = False
auth.settings.table_user.last_name.writable =
auth.settings.table_user.last_name.readable = False
The first and last names show up in data base as blank columns, but it is a
quick work-around.
Plus later I could but both fields on a "profile" view (by making them
readable and writeable there)
and let user fill in as optional fields if they like.
