In progress A Big problem with my Forum

Post by TheUnknown2899 August 31st 2013, 10:21 pm

Hello everyone! My name is Anders and I have a forum here.
My problem is when someone register. Peoples cannot register at our forum because the username is already taken but it hasn't been taken before. I found out that if someone have a part of the name of other members, it will say "The username has already been taken".
I noticed it when my friend is registering at my account. He chose the username Alex.
But my brother has already registred with an username Alexkiller2895. So he isn't able to register at our forum.

Yes, possible... Tell him to register with some other name, and you can change that later, in administration panel. It is that. You can't fix that.

Hi,

Please change the title of your topic, that is related to your question/issue, so that other users will be able to find their question/issue using the search engine.


It happens because of a security option.
Go to Administration Panel >> General >> Forum >> Security >> Security Administration >> Unauthorize subscriptions made with the most commonly used spam usernames. : No.
Save.
