Hello, right now for the usernames in discourse we spit the email of the person, so if we have the email [email protected] the username in discourse will be foo, but this has the issue that if two users have the emails [email protected] and [email protected] the first one will end up with the username foo and the second one won't be able to login(no account will be created).
So we need something else, if we have the user with firstname: foo lastname: bar email: [email protected] the possible solutions are foo_bar, foobar yes this means that we *can't* have as usernames the 'foo bar' and '[email protected]'. I guess the desired solution would be to have '[email protected]' as a username, since in the bodega-server we auth with the email. I have written a patch which allows us to have as usernames the emails, basically I just changed the regular expression which validates the username I will try to get it merged in the discourse. If the patch goes in I guess problem solved but if it doesn't? Do we want another custom patch? -- Giorgos Tsiapaliokas (terietor) terietor.org
