Reserve Usernames?

Post by garfielder »

Is there any extensions to reserve usernames? For example, an admin could have 2 usernames at once

There's no extension for that.
But what's the point? An admin can have second account and be logged in with both accounts.

BTW your topic title suggests that certain usernames could be reserved, i.o.w. someone just signing up wouldn't be able to take that username.
Spelling is freeware, which means you can use it for free.
On the other hand, it is not open source, which means you cannot change it or publish it in a modified form.

Disallow the relevant Usernames in the ACP, then un disallow them when they are needed

ACP>Users and Groups>Disallow Usernames
