Enable/Disable Users - Beta 3
Greetings:

Per the announcement - Community Beta 3 has the:-

* Ability to mass enable/disable users in any application.

I can't see any options to be able to do this - as all users who are imported are still not enabled by default.

Thanks,



Clint.

It's tucked away in Applications->Modify Application->Enable/Disable Users.

Cheers,

Alex

Hi Alex:

Found that - thanks. I note that the username length is limited to 15 characters. Is there any way to change this (at least initially)? I have over 5,000 users and only about 80 of them meet the 15 character limit!

Thanks,



Clint.

Yes a username lenght of 30 characters up would be good!

Else you'll have a lot of problems with GMail-Usernames (if the domainname is already 15 or more characters!)

We changed it to 255 for beta 3. Where are you seeing the 15 character limit?

Cheers,

Hi Alex:

Thanks for your reply. I selected all users (as indicated above) for GForum. Out of 5000 it enabled 80 of them.

I then went into the user's that were 'not enabled' and tried to enable one for GForum. That's when I got the error message at the top of the page in red - 15 characters. Message was as follows:-Unable to insert user abcdefgxxxxxxxxxxx because: Invalid username 'abcdefgxxxxxxxxxxx': Username too long. The maximum length of a username is 15 characters

I have since tried the same thing with LinksSQL and that works - this makes me suspect that the issue may lie with GForum (although the username field in Gforum appears to be 50 characters).

Thanks for your help....

Regards,



Clint.

In GForum, set username_max_length to whatever you like (obviously more than 15)...
