Greetings,

I haven’t been able to find any reference to this anywhere online…

When creating a new Project in PoL/PWA, is there a way to apply RegEx to the ‘Name’ (Project Name) field?

Basically: I would like to limit it to Alpha-Numeric, Spaces and Dashes…and definitely prevent ‘&’ and brackets ‘()[]’. Either make it required or prevent ‘finish’ button (Create project) from functioning until it is valid.

What might be a strategy to go about this validation?

(Note: I am somewhat surprised this has never been discussed before…especially considering that PWA creates a sub-site & use the ‘Name’ field as the URL. Frankly, it is surprising that PWA even allows ‘&’.)

Much appreciated,

-TR
