This module is very useful. Thank you.

One thing I would like to do is include an underscore between the first and last names in usernames. So, for example, when David Tennant registers an account, his username becomes David_Tennant.

Would it be possible to add this option or to add an option to choose different custom characters in the usernames?

Thanks again!

If you have create two fields in main profile
/admin/structure/profiles/manage/main/fields

e.g.
field_fname
field_lname

then you should be able to create a realname pattern like

[user:profile-main:field_fname]_[user:profile-main:field_lname]

Sorry, but I don't see anyway to customize the realname pattern as you suggest.

I believe he's referring to the Realname module. You can install http://drupal.org/project/realname, then use the firstname and lastname tokens to customize the output of the username.

I gave up on this module and switched to Auto Username instead. It's easier to use with more funcionality.

I believe this request is out of the scope of this module, especially since a more complex module exists which will handle this use case.
