Description

When I click on Add the URL is set to: http://localhost:3000/users/0 Why is the id set to 0?

I had a look at the code, it looks like the system is not taking care of the Trimming before saving the username, email address,and the user's First and Last Name.

For instance, add 4 blank spaces in the Username field and it happily accepts the input without taking caring of the white spaces.

Trim all these fields before a record is saved to the database.

When I try to set the Active checkbox, it does nothing.

When I try to save the User, a click on the Save button does nothing.

As a side note: Trimming should also be taken care of when a new post is created.

Thanks

Research direction
Investigate the User creation flow: why the URL sets id=0 (possibly a default value bug), implement trimming for username, email, first/last names in both frontend and backend, check the Active checkbox state binding, and debug the Save button click handler. Review existing comments and related components like UserForm or UserCreate. Ensure backend resolvers handle trimming and the mutation returns correct data.
