Is there any way that I can set a minimum length for the username upon registration? I searched the forum but could not find any information.

Thanks in advance.

As far as I'm aware, theres no setting for minimum username length -- though there is an upper limit to usernames if i remember right.

It may be achievable with a code edit -- but i'll have to take a closer look at it

Doesn't look like that option is there now.  This is what I got when I searched for "minimum username length"!

Thank you JimM.

It will be nice to have this option in the future version of SMF. I don't want users to register with only one or two letters as their usernames.

zeroandone,
If you want this to be added to SMF as a feature, then I could move this topic to the 'Feature Requests' board.
If you think this feature would make a good mod then I can move this topic to the 'Mod Requests' board.

Thanks LHVWB. I would like this to be added as a feature. Actually, I already posted a feature request in the Feature Request board. Here is the link: http://www.simplemachines.org/community/index.php?topic=278230.msg1825307#msg1825307
