No, it probably proves that they are concentrating their efforts on developing code -and making it secure - rather than scouring the forums...

Have you submitted it as a feature request on the Sourceforge site? Or at the very worse as a comment on the Devteam site?

That's the correct location to address things like this...

Ok, I found something that seems to work. In profiles/register.php found this lines:


Sure on location?

I have no directory called "profiles" I however do have /modules/profile/register.php

Is that the file you're referring to?

First: thanks for your work! I think the "Display name" feature is a bad idea as a security feature. It is too difficult to explain to the users. Let's apply the motto: "Don't make me think!".

Second: Just quoting out:

$edituser->setVar('uname', $myts->stripSlashesGPC(trim($_POST['uname'])));

in edituser.php works better for me than changing it in:

$edituser->setVar('uname', $myts->stripSlashesGPC(trim($_POST['loginname'])));
