I'm not really sure if this is a bug report or a feature request - or if I simply haven't found where to configure it correctly:
It seems that mojoportal does not allow email addresses containing a + sign in the part left of the @ sign. Some email providers (such as gmail) allow that the plus sign to create aliases. E.g. if my main account is myname@gmail.com, then I can use any number of aliases such as myname+private@gmail.com, myname+work@gmail.com. This allows to tag/filter messages automatically depending on what address was used.
So my request/question is: can I somehow configure the rules used to validate email addresses or could a future version of mojoportal allow the + sign in email addresses?
When I test this with the latest version of mojoPortal it works fine for me to have a + in the left part of the email address.
I'm using mojoPortal 2.3.5.1, and when I try to change my email address to something like name+alias@gmail.com on the page UserProfile.aspx, then I get the error "Must use a valid email address". I think (can't remember exactly) I got the same error when trying to register a new account. Update: when I use the "Add New User" link on the "Member List" page, then I can create a user with email containing a + sign.
Hi,
you are right, it was using a different regular expression for validating the email on the user profile page. This will be fixed in the next release to make it use the same validation as login and register pages.
Best,
Joe
