Multisite username check
This is a suggestion by Porg. Participation is welcome!
In the user registration process at the various Open Pandora related sites (board, wiki, repo, bugtracker, …) Porg suggests to display the following hint:
Before registering your username here, you can run the Pandora sphere username checker, which tests whether the username already exists within any other OpenPandora related sites:
- As a courtesy to other users, in order to not take their name away on other sites.
- For your own convenience, to achieve a uniform nickname on all the OpenPandora sites, as a new arriving community member.
ToDo
- Which Open Pandora relates websites (with user registration) are there? Anyone please add the URLs to the list below.
- Which site operators are willing to cooperate? Site operators, please confirm your readiness, by writing your name plus short note next to the URL. Requirements for participating site operators:
- Offer a software interface (API) for testing whether a username exists at your site.
- Display the hint and link to or embed the checking service (iframe) into the registration page/process of your site.
- We need a web developer to create that multisite username checking service. Developer volunteers, please participate in the discussion process, or enlist your dedication right below.
