Hello, I have been using a (in general quite popular I think ...) convention where the e-mail address has been used as username. I have solved this by asking the user for an e-mail address and a password, and then used the supplied e-mail address both as username and e-mail address when instantiating a User object. This has worked fine up until now.
Now suddenly someone came along with an e-mail address which was longer than the 30 characters limit imposed on the username; and things went to pieces. I have Googled this topic but did not find any clear cut simple solution, altough I am definitely not the first one to stumble over this problem. So two questions: 1) I modified the (development) database directly increasing the field size from 30 to 75; and that seemed to work nicely; but I am not very comfortable about the solution. What do you say? 2) Any chance of changing this in a future release? Joakim -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Django users" group.
