Hello
I am trying to add Arabic characters in USERNAME
the USERNAME field only support Latin characters
I don't know PHP
You need two places
rlAccount -> function ajaxUserExist
rlAccount -> function validateUsername
There is regular expression that need to be modified, or checking condition can be totally skipped.
can someone help me THANKS

Hello,
As you may know, usernames are not used in Arabic by all systems because it can cause unexpected errors saving Arabic username to database
so we also recommend against using it
but if you still need to use Arabic username you should disable username verification (which is not good) because it blocks Arabic symbols
disable validateUsername function

go to ftp > includes > controllers > registration.inc.php > find a comment // username login mode
change a code below from:
if (!$rlAccount->validateUsername($username)) {
$errors[] = str_replace('{field}', '<span class="field_error">"' . $lang['username'] . '"</span>', $lang['notice_field_not_valid']);
$error_fields = 'profile[username],';
} else {
$rlValid->sql($username);
if ($rlDb->getOne('ID', "`Username` = '{$username}'", 'accounts')) {
$errors[] = str_replace('{username}', $username, $lang['notice_account_exist']);
$error_fields = 'profile[username]';
}
}
to:
$rlValid->sql($username);
if ($rlDb->getOne('ID', "`Username` = '{$username}'", 'accounts')) {
$errors[] = str_replace('{username}', $username, $lang['notice_account_exist']);
$error_fields = 'profile[username]';
}
then go to includes > classes > rlAccount.class.php > function ajaxUserExist
change:
if ( $exist || empty($username)
|| (!$valid && $message = str_replace('{field}', '<span class="field_error">"'.$lang['username'].'"</span>', $lang['notice_field_not_valid']))
)
to:
if ( $exist || empty($username) )
