Can spaces be used in usernames in XOOPS 2.2? If not how can it be enabled. I know there was a hack for XOOPS 2.0.x but now the register.php has become part of a module with different structure than the old version. Any suggestion?

this is what i need exactly.
many users in my site have spaces in their usernames and if i upgrade to 2.2 all of them must change their own usernames

ok i catch it
thanks to Albright i just implement this hack to 2.2:
open modules/profile/include/functions.php
around line 26 :
switch ($xoopsModuleConfig['uname_test_level']) {
        case 
0:
        
// strict
        
$restriction '/[^a-zA-Z0-9_-[color=FF0000]s[/color]]/';
        break;
        case 
1:
        
// medium
        
$restriction '/[^a-zA-Z0-9_-<>,.$%#@!\'"[color=FF0000]s[/color]]/';
        break;
        case 2:
        // loose
        
$restriction = '/[00-40[color=FF0000]s[/color]]/';
        break;
    }


then around line 68:
[color=FF0000]//[/color]   if (strrpos($user->getVar('loginname'), ' ') > 0) {
 
[color=FF0000]//[/color]       $stop .= _PROFILE_MA_NICKNAMENOSPACES."<br />";
 
[color=FF0000]//[/color]   }


it works for me
