I have looked for this but can't seem to pick out anythign specifically and want to know if I can do this?
Basically I want to keep miyw out of any usernames but those I assign those letters to including m i y w at least I want to try and keep anyone but who i assign it to from using it at registration.
Anyway to do this?<

theonly way you could really do that is manually, how else will you know what someone is going to use in advance?<

In the admin panel, what does the UserName Filter Configuration do?<

it just stops people using certain usernames, it does not allow you to pick and choose who can use a specific name, that would require you to know in advance they were going to register, premonitions is not one of the forums core functions <

Hmmm. I just tried to test it out. I input a username in the UserName Filter Configuration. I then created a new account using that name and it let me. What should it have done instead? I must have messed up my file somewhere.<

I'm guessing manually is probably easiest, but if it's going to be a regular problem could you not filter out the letters as you wanted in register.asp and then create a simple admin page for yourself to edit usernames? I haven't checked the function but possibly add the letters to the illegal character check for register.asp? You could always make it possible for you to edit usernames in pop_profile instead of a new page if that'd be easier, i'm pretty sure there's a mod floating about for that.<

Thanks! If it were a snake it would have bit me!<

Yeah all I want is the miyw and a couple variations of that to not be used except for when I as a admin assign it to people. Mainly I want everyone to know who is from my company and no one try and desguise themselves as an employee.
Thanks will take a look at a couple of those suggestions<

Why not just use custom titles to highlight employese? Only you, as the admin, can change those.

Hmm didn't think about using that. Sometimes the easy answer is staring you right in the face. thanks shaggy<

You're welcome, Jeff
