You do realize you are in the vB3 area, right? ;)

In register.php find:

PHP Code:


		
			
        eval('$errors[10] = "' . fetch_phrase('username_semicolon', PHRASETYPEID_ERROR) . '";');

    }

Add after:

PHP Code:


		
			
    // prevent all caps username

    if ($_POST['username'] == strtoupper($_POST['username'])) {

        

        eval('$errors[15] = "' . fetch_phrase('username_allcaps', PHRASETYPEID_ERROR) . '";');    

    }

Add a phrase called username_allcaps in the front end error message group with the error message to show if a user enters an all caps name.

How about a username like:

MarTin

Is there any way to check for all of them to be caps in case someone has a name like this?

It would be nice to have this as a plugin. Maintaining changes the PHP files is a pain in the butt when upgrading.
