Auto Username

Hello
Is it possible to automatically assign new members a username? I need to assign a number in ascending order to all new registrants as their username.

Thanks for your help

You can use CB Auto Actions and a Query action, Code action, or Field action to accomplish this. Which method you use is up to you. Query could be a direct query to _users to alter the row of the user. Code could be a Joomla API or preferably CB API call to change and store the user. Field would do the storing for you, but you won't be able to really do any logic here.

A similar case was mentioned here:

www.joomlapolis.com/forum/87-presales/225002-autogenerate-username#247604

The proposed solution was similar: "use a Code action on the before registration trigger and alter the POST of username to whatever you want".

In my case, I need the username to be 10 random digits. Does anyone know what a PHP code would look like that would accomplish this (that I can put into the Auto Action code section)?

I notice there really isnt an answer here. Could someone explain exactly how to do this? I would like to be able to do this.
