Enhanced the error message for Gmail addresses in the registration form to better explain why dots and plus signs are not allowed. The new message clarifies that Gmail treats addresses like john.doe@gmail.com or john+doe@gmail.com as aliases of johndoe@gmail.com, helping users understand the validation requirement.

@EdwardLab I have trouble signing up until I realized there're these rules with gmail accounts lol |
|
Thanks for the PR! Just a quick note: this Gmail-specific validation is important because allowing dots could otherwise lead to abuse (e.g. the same person registering multiple accounts with what Gmail treats as the same address). |
|
Yah, that make sense, I originally thought my email can't work because the error message was not clear to me that removing dot sign is still sending to my email address |
|
@EdwardLab let me know if you need me to make any changes before merging this or I can close this PR too if it's not needed |
guaiamum
