I notice that several characters are not allowed in web2py user names, like
~ and !,
but "." (period) and "-" are allowed.
Quick Question:
Is there an easy way to restrict usernames to only allow a-z as first
letter?
*Reason:*
I will have other uses for the url with . and - in them.
*Reference:
*
gmail signup
The first character of your username should be a letter (a-z) or number.
Thanks, sure enjoying web2py and learning Python and this user forum.
-------
*Notes:*
I have this in
*/models/db.py*
# require username, not email on signup
auth.define_tables(username=True)
I did see this about adding a character..
