My users can't use numbers in their login names.
Although it is allowed in file setup_options.php
$userRegName='_A-Za-z0-9äöüß ';
using miniBB 2.2b
What's wrong here?

So far I suppose, in the newest version usernames can't consist of the
numbers only
(to avoid conflict between username and user ID in some add-ons, for example, Private Messaging), but still, numbers may be used, you can try on
minibb demo
.

I just tried your minibb demo with username "elo22".
It doesn't work.
Message:
"Error in user data: Password is allowed to contain only latin letters (a-z and A-Z), numbers (0-0) and underscores, it must be between 5 and 30 characters in length."
----
I remember that using numbers worked in past, because I have some users with numbers in their name in my database. So there must be made any change in forums code. But where?

So your mistake is not in the username, but in the password. Do you see what's written?
Error in user data:
Password
... I have registered 'elo22' successfully and have made a post from this account.

Oh sorry, my mistake. Now it works in demo forums. But not in mine.... I can't remember that I made any changes to forums code for registration.
Which files should I check?

You should check your password first ;-) Then the option under setup_options.php (which seems correct for you) and bb_func_checkusr.php file.

Thanks, there was an old version of bb_func_checkusr.php on server. I updated it and now it works!
