I notice that several characters are not allowed in web2py user names, like ~ and !, but "." (period) and "-" are allowed.
Quick Question: Is there an easy way to restrict usernames to only allow a-z as first letter? *Reason:* I will have other uses for the url with . and - in them. *Reference: * gmail signup The first character of your username should be a letter (a-z) or number. Thanks, sure enjoying web2py and learning Python and this user forum. ------- *Notes:* I have this in */models/db.py* # require username, not email on signup auth.define_tables(username=True) I did see this about adding a character.. https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!searchin/web2py/first$20character$20of$20username/web2py/9K4PTFuTNtA/s_uIneT4fzIJ --
