[Bug 787313] Re: having a trailing space on username doesn't work

 

Is that trimming when creating a new user in the site admin area or
trimming in the Android app?

Title:
  having a trailing space on username doesn't work

Status in Mahara ePortfolio:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  I only noticed this when I was using MaharaDroid, and the input
  autocompleted my username of hughdavenport, and when it autocompletes
  it puts a ' ' after it. The app then said I had an invalid token,
  though it was correct, removing ' ' made it work.

  This also happens in manual login.

  Wishlist most likely, but it would be a good idea to trim entered
  usernames or something, as a space is not allowed in the username
  (according to the error message that comes up when adding a username
  with a space)

  Cheers,

  Hugh
