Would need to do a file edit:
Code:
/**
* Verifies that the provided username is valid, and attempts to correct it if it is not valid
*
* @param string Username
*
* @return boolean Returns true if the username is valid, or has been corrected to be valid
*/
function verify_username(&$username)
{
// fix extra whitespace and invisible ascii stuff
$username = trim(preg_replace('#[ \r\n\t]+#si', ' ', strip_blank_ascii($username, ' ')));
