Username - maxlength?

I find that the maxlength of the username is a little limiting.

For simplicity we want to allow people to use their e-mail adresses as a username. Since FileVista only allows 30 characters for the username this doesn't work unless the user has a short e-mail address.

I would really like if you could expand this so that longer usernames could be used.

You can simply increase the length of "Name" field in "User" table for this purpose. You should also change the maxlength of username input tags such as in login.aspx so that you can enter usernames longer than 30 characters.

That was easy ;-)

I didn't try simply because I thought you may have had some business logic coded somewhere.

Thanks!
