    add Arabic characters in USERNAME

    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:
    PHP Code:
    Only registered members can view the code
    to:

    to:
