Prevent certain character from being included in username or parse them properly
kenneropia opened this issue · comments
Hello guys, I used "adetunmbikenny@gmail.com" as a username and because the username is on the URL on the profile page, characters like "@" and "<" are converted to %40 and %3E respectively, you can check for more info on this here.
We can either prevent those type of character from the form or convert the string(like adetunmbikenny%40gmail.com to "@adetunmbikenny@gmail.com") before passing the payload to the db.
Please, can I create a PR for this and work on it and please if so, kindly choose the approach to go with it. Thanks.
Yes, please go ahead, we only want English characters a-z A-Z -_ 0-9
(lowercase only)
fixed
I was already working on it on my local branch🥲, please don’t take the other one I have started working on it.
