FEU - Maximum length of username - is this a bug?

Post by heffegg »

I had a problem in FEU 1.10.1 
Using Email as Username, where the Maximum length of Username kept resetting to 20 characters if anything was changed in Builtin Authentication. Not very long for an email address.

This caused a problem in Self Registration where people couldn't enter their email address to register.
Eventually I found the problem.

On line 60 of admin_authtab.tpl  - maximum username was being set to the same length as maximum password.

I changed the value FROM $maxpwlen TO $unfldlen - now email address fits as expected.

Just posting this in case anyone else has had a similar problem.

if you think this is a bug, please file it under the FrontEndUsers project in the Forge.  It will be much more likely to be tracked and fixed if it's logged there.
