minimum username length

[karlh626]

Is it possible to change the minimum length of usernames?

I would like to be able to use 3 letter usernames (initials).

TIA

Karl

Sure, if you edit this file:
classes/modules/users/UserFactory.class.php

Then find the following block of code around line 300:

Code: Select all

						$this->Validator->isLength(		'user_name',
														$user_name,
														TTi18n::gettext('Incorrect user name length'),
														4,
														250)

Change the "4" to a "3".

Thank you - that worked perfectly.
