nodebb-plugin-sso-google Remove the dash in username
-
If my google username is
bla blaa
, while registering a user with this plugin it assigns the usernamebla-blaa
to my nodebb user. So if my forum is example.com , my username becomes @bla-blaa@example.com . While this username can be followed from most fediverse server like mastodon and pixelfed, threads takes only the part before the dash and so assumes the username to bebla
and thus the nodebb user cannot be mentioned or followed from threads. So, I want this plugin to assign the username @blablaa@example.com or @blaBlaa@example.com on registration for this case. @julian @baris How can I do so? Asking this because I did not find any code in this plugin which concatenates the username parts using dash, so I guess this has got to do something with core nodebb and this plugin will need to override that. -
@bh4-tech let me ask the Threads people about this. Seems like an odd omission.
Can you link to your threads account please?

@julian Have attached the link to the specific post here.

@bh4-tech hmm, looks like it's related to how Threads is processing the mention. They're not capturing the dash, so it could be the remote account still exists.

@julian The mastodon and pixelfed profile mentions work fine. I am attaching the screenshot of what opens when I click on the pixelfed profile link.

@bh4-tech interesting, since they don't look linked to me. However I don't have a Threads account, so I'm not logged in.
Can you screenshot your post?
