Two random words will be used to create the username, joined together with a small number (up to 2 digits). • For nwa_picture_password, the random_username_length is ignored. • For nwa_sequence, the random_username_length is the length of the sequence number in the username; the sequence number will be zero-padded. For example, specifying a length of 4 will result in sequence numbers 0001, 0002, etc. Sequential numbering When using the nwa_sequence option, at least one additional field must be specified. The multi_prefix field is required and must be a non-empty string. This string will be used as the initial string for sequentially-numbered account names. For example, setting multi_prefix to "user" will create visitor accounts named user0001, user0002, user0003 and so on. The multi_initial_sequence field may be provided. This value can be used to specify the initial sequence number. If not provided, the default initial sequence number is 1. The random_username_length field specifies the length of the sequence number part of the username. Sequence numbers are padded with zeroes. For example, specifying a length of 4 will result in sequence numbers 0001, 0002, etc. Password Options The following options may be used as the value of the random_password_method field.

Naming Options
The following options may be used as the value of the
random_username_method
field.
Value
Description
nwa_digits_password
Creates usernames using random digits
nwa_letters_password
Creates usernames using random letters (a
through z)
nwa_lettersdigits_password
Creates usernames using random letters and
digits (a through z and 0 through 9)
nwa_alnum_password
Creates usernames using random alphanumeric
characters (a-z, A-Z and 0-9)
nwa_words_password
Creates usernames using two random words
separated by a small number
nwa_picture_password
Creates usernames using the format picture
specified in the
random_username_picture
field
nwa_sequence
Creates usernames sequentially
The
random_username_length
field specifies the number of characters in the generated
username, with the following exceptions:
For nwa_words_password, the random_username_length is the maximum length of the
random words to use. Two random words will be used to create the username, joined together
with a small number (up to 2 digits).
For nwa_picture_password, the random_username_length is ignored.
For nwa_sequence, the random_username_length is the length of the sequence number in the
username; the sequence number will be zero-padded. For example, specifying a length of 4 will
result in sequence numbers 0001, 0002, etc.
Sequential numbering
When using the
nwa_sequence
option, at least one additional field must be specified.
The
multi_prefix
field is required and must be a non-empty string. This string will be used as the
initial string for sequentially-numbered account names. For example, setting
multi_prefix
to
“user” will create visitor accounts named
user0001
,
user0002
,
user0003
and so on.
The
multi_initial_sequence
field may be provided. This value can be used to specify the initial
sequence number. If not provided, the default initial sequence number is 1.
The
random_username_length
field specifies the length of the sequence number part of the
username. Sequence numbers are padded with zeroes. For example, specifying a length of 4 will
result in sequence numbers 0001, 0002, etc.
Password Options
The following options may be used as the value of the
random_password_method
field.
