#20694: Non-ascii unicode characters considered invalid in username -------------------------------+-------------------- Reporter: akhayyat@… | Owner: nobody Type: Uncategorized | Status: new Component: contrib.auth | Version: 1.5 Severity: Normal | Keywords: Triage Stage: Unreviewed | Has patch: 1 Easy pickings: 0 | UI/UX: 0 -------------------------------+-------------------- In the admin's user change form, entering a new username with non-ascii unicode characters, e.g. é or ع, and saving the form results in an "Enter a valid username" error message.
The model field accepts such usernames programmatically, but editing a form with such a username prevents saving it unless the username is changed to remove all non-ascii characters. This pull request fixes the problem, and allows saving the form with non- ascii unicode characters in the username field: https://github.com/django/django/pull/1322 -- Ticket URL: <https://code.djangoproject.com/ticket/20694> Django <https://code.djangoproject.com/> The Web framework for perfectionists with deadlines. -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django updates" group.
