Extract substring with RegEx SOLVED

[SniperFodder]

Hello,

I'm unable to find in the manual how to use Extract substring with RegEx. I have a form input asking for an email, and then I'm trying to process the output with a regex to only grab the first half of the email (Everything before the @). I'm using ^(.+)@.+$

When it outputs I get the full email address still.

Additionally, I can't search the forums.

Hi SniperFodder,

try

.*(?=@)

it´s a 'positive lookahead'.

Here you can find good explanations and a perfect playground for testing: https://regex101.com/

Hi,

I've always wondered what positive lookahead is used for. That clears that up.

Also I recently noticed that your accept button does not work for the downloads. It disables the buttons.
