Hi,
I have just installed DNN6 and was trying to register new user.
It seems it doesn't allow special characters(. or _) in username..Can we allow to accept special characters in the user name by changing any setting?

Please let me know..

Yes. Go to the User Settings area and either modify or delete the regular expression that is used to validate usernames.

FWIW allowing special characters in usernames is regarded by many as a potential security risk.
