I think is an error here Hi there 🙂

TL;DR
Summary: The thread discusses making the warning messages more clear regarding allowed characters in an ID field. It is suggested to specify the exact allowed characters and specify that the ID must begin with a letter or number. There is also an error mentioned. Solution: Update the warning messages to say "allowed characters: letters, numbers, hyphens, underscores, periods" and specify that the ID must begin with a letter or number. Fix the error mentioned.

i think we mean non-leading hyphen, non-leading underscore, and non-leading period.

@VincentGe, do you think we need to make this clearer?

If we want to make it clearer, we can make the warning more exact.

  1. If there's a character that's not allowed, say "allowed characters: letters, numbers, hyphens, underscores, periods.
  2. If there are leading characters that aren't valid, warning should say "ID must begin with a letter or number"
