<br>
Most sites have users login using just their username rather than
email address.<br>
So my default supplied regex for the username is more restrictive
than the one for the email address, as you want to keep it as tight
as you can.<br>
<br>
If you want to allow an email address for the username, then the
simplest solution is to just copy the regex from 'validEmailRegexp'
into the value for 'usernameRegexp' in preferences.php.<br>
<br>
That's one of the reasons I have those 2 specified in a config file
rather than hard-wired. :-)<br>
<br>
Cheers,<br>
Jules.<br>

<p class="MsoNormal">I’m using the AD authenticator. Users are

<p class="MsoNormal">I noticed that in the preferences.php file,
the REGEX for username and email address do not match. I’ve
looked at the code, and I was trying to find (unsucessfully)
if there is some type of filtering or conversion being done,
and the actual lookup against AD uses a modifed usernameRegexp
instead of the raw username as the user typed in the login
screen. The usernameRegexp does not seem to allow the
apostrophe.
<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">I’m still looking, but if anybody has a
suggestion or an explanation why the username cannot use an
apostrophe, I’d appreciate it. Or do I simply change the
username regex to allow for the apostrophe?<o:p></o:p></p>
