Summary0019548: Feasibility to register with an EMAIL ID itself as Username
Description

Hello All,

We have full fledged working Mantis Setup, widely used by members across the organization for various projects.

Over the period it is observed that, users whenever they forget their credentials are trying to create a new account afresh all the time.

This is leading to a chaos, as by this time some of the users have multiple accounts registered for themselves.

We would like to restrict this issue by addressing it in this way -

  1. Mandate the users to register with their OFFICIAL EMAIL ID as USERNAME thereby ensuring that the application keeps the track by restricting them by registering again, when the same is already existing.

Can we allow the registration to complete by allowing the special characters such as

  1. "."
  2. "@"

Assuming that these two are most widely appearing characters?

Thanking you in advance.

TagsNo tags attached.

spacomp,

there is a configuration option $g_user_login_valid_regex for it, have a look at
https://www.mantisbt.org/docs/master-1.2.x/en/administration_guide.html#ADMIN.CONFIG.MISC

This is not a bug or feature request for MantisBT (you are asking for help on how to configure the system). I am therefore resolving this issue as "no change required".

Please use the forums, the mantisbt-help mailing list or IRC to get support on customizing and using MantisBT (refer to http://www.mantisbt.org/support.php for links and further details).
