user login less than 4 letters

[mamasw]

Hello.

I have just installed humhub. Is it possible to change user login length requirement to be less than 4 letters?

Cheers.

I have found something in /protected/modules_core/user/models/User.php. Can you please check is this a only one file where this value is checked?

Yes, that is it.

$rules[] = array('username', 'length', 'max' => 25, 'min' => 4);

to

$rules[] = array('username', 'length', 'max' => 25, 'min' => 3);

Or whatever.

Glad I could help. Maybe this should be a setting under authentication settings of the admin center @luke- ?

I know some people use short nicknames, for example mine is "WAS". I had to make this same edit, though for the ease of updating I just use my full username now. But maybe even then, some people maybe want to limit usernames at 7 characters to keep things unique rather then 4. Who knows.
