You need to list ALL Cyrillic alphabet letters, period like for the latin lettes will not work.

All checking algorithms are inside of bb_func_checkusr.php

What about password? Is it possible to include foreign letters in it?

It is NOT recommended and not available by default. Password is stored in MD5 format and who knows how it will work on your side with non-latin characters. Better leave this idea.

Has anyone implemented the capability of passwords (not only logins) in cyrillic or other non-latin symbols?

You may edit a (core) file bb_func_checkusr.php and change

eregi("^[A-Za-z0-9_]{5,32}$"

specifying a valid regular expression for the password, for example listing all cyrillic symbols. However as I mentioned above it is not a recommended action since all passwords are encoded in MD5. Modify at your own risk - no support on such topic.

Well I'm having problem with this, it just won't work :(

$userRegName='_A-Za-zÄäÖö0-9';


Still it won't allow to register usernames with Ä or Ö -letters :/

You need to be sure these letters correspond to the generic forums encoding you have set. If the encoding is set improperly, these symbols will be transformed to something else upon submission and so the script won't recognize them.

haha ~~

Resolved the problem at last!!! yeah!

the Regular Expressions should be writed like this:

$userRegName='_A-Za-z\\x80-\\xff0-9 ';

I think many of others Foreign language symbols can support as well.


Register NAME with Chinese Character.
