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 modify

!preg_match("#^[A-Za-z0-9_]
{5,32}$#i"
specifying a valid regular expression for the password, for example listing all Cyrillic characters one by one.

However as I mentioned above it is not a recommended action since all passwords are encoded in MD5.
Users may experience troubles when entering such passwords on different devices.

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.

Hi!

I have the same problem with registration using cyrillic symbols. I've set $userRegName like it was adviced early by Ivan and Moody, but still can't register with russian name.

Moony:
$userRegName='_A-Za-z0-9АБВГДЕЁЖЗИЙКЛМНОПРСТУФХЦЧШЩЪЫЬЭЮЯабвгдеёжзийкл мнопрстуфхцчшщъыьэюя_-';
Is there any other settings I have to do to solve this problem?

It depends on what kind of Charset you have installed for your forum. If it's UTF-8, the setup_options.php file also should be modified having UTF-8 symbols in $userRegName. In other words, whatever you put in this setting, will be compared with whatever input on the registration page under the encoding you've set.

I have installed forum with windows-1251 charset and setup_options.php is also saved in windows-1251.
Cyrillic menus and messages are OK, but registration does't work ((

Whatever I could say... it needs more debugging :) more infos to catch the error.
They DO work if everything is installed/configured properly. I did it on many Cyrillic forums.

Using setlocale() in setup_options.php solves this problem. Of course, if locale on the server is different from charset of forum.
