    Recently, after upgrading a number of plugins, the site does not allow members with space in username to login the web. Meanwhile, members who sign up using OA social login create spaces in the username, so they cannot login to the web. Is there any way to solve it ?

    Hello,

    to remove any spaces from the user’s login, you can simply use this filter:

    function oa_social_login_filter_user_fields ($user_fields)
{
  $user_fields['user_login'] = str_replace(' ', '', $user_fields['user_login']);
  return $user_fields;
}
 
//This filter is applied to new users
add_filter('oa_social_login_filter_new_user_fields', 'oa_social_login_filter_user_fields');

    The code must be added to the end of the functions.php file of your WordPress theme. By doing so your changes will not be overwritten when you install a new version of Social Login. You can find this file in your WordPress admin area under Appearance \ Editor \ Theme Functions (functions.php)

    Do not hesitate to ask if I can be of any help.
