I'm using OctoberCMS based on Laravel.
I'm trying to override the Users Plugin onRegister() function.
A previous answer helped me extend the plugin.
I want to restrict Usernames to alphanumeric only with alpha_dash and limit to 50 characters.
The original function in Account.php
public function onRegister()
{
...
if ($this->loginAttribute() == UserSettings::LOGIN_USERNAME) {
$rules['username'] = 'required|between:2,255';
}
My Override
Users Events docs https://github.com/rainlab/user-plugin#events
public function boot() {
\RainLab\User\Models\User::extend(function($model) {
$model->bindEvent('model.beforeUpdate', function() use ($model) {
# User Register
\Event::listen('rainlab.user.register', function($user, $data) {
if ($this->loginAttribute() == UserSettings::LOGIN_USERNAME) {
$rules['username'] = 'required|alpha_dash|between:2,50';
}
});
});
});
}
Error
"Call to undefined method [loginAttribute]"
If I remove the if statement and loginAttribute and use only $rules['username'], I am still able to register names with non-alphanumeric characters.
I have been able to extend new code using this, but not override existing code.
