Resolved Auto Creation of Username

Hi,

first time user of Easy Profile and so far I like it

But I have a question regarding the auto creation of username when the login is set as email.

As I see the component creates the username from the Name field and instead of spaces uses - sign.

I have found this post on your forum (https://www.easy-profile.com/support/auto-generate-username.html) where you instructed to edit two files. But one of those files is not there (route.php) and in the other (jsn_users.php) there is no code like the one you posted... or at least I cannot find it as I presume you changed a few things since then...

Now we would like to have so the component generates username the same way but instead of - sign just use the dot.

How can I do that or should I say where do I have to edit the code to achieve that...

BR

Hi,
sorry for late reply, it was a weekend for us

link at https://www.easy-profile.com/support/auto-generate-username.html was too old.

The code that generate username from name is into file /plugins/user/jsn_users/jsn_users.php at line 422:



$username=JApplication::stringURLSafe( $name );

You can replace it with something like this:



$username=str_replace( '-' , '.' , JApplication::stringURLSafe( $name ) );
