Hi! Given a username, how do I know if a user with that username is already registered? Is there a way to check, say isUserRegistered(username) or User.isUserRegistered()? Thank you very much. -Allen By the way, HAPPY NEW YEAR! _______________________________________________ users mailing list users(a)xwiki.org http://lists.xwiki.org/mailman/listinfo/users

Hi, If you are just trying to determine whether a name is available for a user registration you can use: #set($userName = "Admin") #if($xwiki.exists("XWiki.$userName")) Username $userName is not available. #end This method will throw false positives for documents in the XWiki space. eg: #set($userName = "TagClass") To be absolutely sure, you need to double check that the document you are getting actually has an object of the class XWiki.XWikiUsers #set($userName = "Admin") #set($user = $xwiki.getDocument("XWiki.$userName")) #if($user.isNew() || !$user.getObject("XWiki.XWikiUsers")) The user named $userName does not exist. #else The user named $userName exists. #end Good luck.
