Spaces in usernames
Hi,

Is there a way we can block spaces in usernames? Can we use the username_invald_chard setting to do it? If so, how?

Thank you.

François

I am a hopeless regex writer, but I would suggest a regex be added to the users table for the username column. I don't know what kind of error your user would get when trying to add spaces, but they would not be able to add them in any case.

I would like to see wildcarding for the blocked username list. I had to type in every variation of the F** word I could think of, and now I have to start on the other bad ones. A wild card system would allow you to do the space blocking as well I would think.
