i want to prevent users in the registration field of username from using non-english characters.
I have this code :
if (preg_match('/[^\p{Arabic}\p{Latin}\d ]/u', $name)) return t('The username contains characters different than latin and arabic characters');
but it only prevent characters like : _ - ()!@#$%^":><.... and not characters like š, č, ć, ž, đ ...
i want a code that do that without effect on arabic characters or something.
please help
分享 Here's a function to check if the username is arabic:
function isArabic($str)
{
return preg_match('/^\p{Arabic}*$/u', $str);
}
example:
var_dump(isArabic('الق'));
var_dump(isArabic('القd')); // 0 since it contains 'd'
To validate username in your case I would do:
function isValidUsername($username)
{
return (preg_match('/^[A-Za-z0-9]+(?:[ _-][A-Za-z0-9]+)*$/', $username) || isArabic($username));
}
Or you could just this regex:
'/(?:^[A-Za-z0-9]+(?:[ _-][A-Za-z0-9]+)*$)|(?:^\p{Arabic}+(?:[ _-]\p{Arabic}+)*$)/u'
example:
var_dump(isValidUsername('Želda')); // false
var_dump(isValidUsername('Zel-da')); // true
var_dump(isValidUsername('Zelda whaever,.')); // false
var_dump(isValidUsername('الق')); // true
var_dump(isValidUsername('الق.الق')); // false
var_dump(isValidUsername('القd')); // false
However instead of preventing user from using non english characters you might want to convert it using this function:
function toAscii($input)
{
$str = html_entity_decode($input,ENT_COMPAT,"UTF-8");
$oldLocale = setlocale(LC_CTYPE, 0);
setlocale(LC_CTYPE, 'en_US.UTF-8');
$str = iconv("UTF-8", "ASCII//TRANSLIT", $str);
setlocale(LC_CTYPE, $oldLocale);
return $str;
}
It will return the converted string.
example:
echo toAscii('Želda'); // Zelda
For that I also like to use the function remove_accents form Wordpress:
/**
* Converts all accent characters to ASCII characters.
*
* If there are no accent characters, then the string given is just returned.
*
* @since 1.2.1
*
* @param string $string Text that might have accent characters
* @return string Filtered string with replaced "nice" characters.
*/
function remove_accents($string, $locale = null) {
if ( !preg_match('/[\x80-\xff]/', $string) )
return $string;
if (seems_utf8($string)) {
$chars = array(
