Hi

I'm using the admin API to log in users already registered to another system, this is working great. 

I'm asking my users to create a membername for the forum, does anyone know what validation rules and what characters are allowed for a forum membername and password?  All I've found on the documentation and support is minukum 3 characters and maximum 15.

If someone has an exact specification for the membername and password fields that would be fab - I can then apply the correct validation before they log in to the forum.

Thanks

PaulJohnny

You can use anything you want for the username as long as the minimum length is 3 and maximum length 15.

The API does use XML which some non ASCII characters can break but most characters, numbers and symbols should be fine.
