Remember that you should not allow other chars, because you may be exposed to security issue... do it at your own risk.

I am unable to add a single quote ' to the allowed list of the usernames. I am not sure how much of a security problem this would be but is there a way around this.

THANKS

too long because you've to replace ' by ' everywhere

Is this correct
 'Forbidden_characters' => 'Allowed characters for usernames are a-z, 0-9, -, _ а-я and spaces.',
or this ?
 'Forbidden_characters' => 'Allowed characters for usernames are a-z, 0-9, -, _ а-я, and spaces.',
I tried first one, but nothing work  
I did everything, also with lang russian/ lang main.php but it's not working

тест : this username is not available

Unfortunately current Icy Phoenix doesn't fully support UTF-8 and special chars.

I'm working hard to the project to enhance and fix this aspect, so you should wait the next version to have a new try with special chars usernames.
