Add this to your wp-config.php file (before the “stop editing” line):
define( 'BP_ENABLE_USERNAME_COMPATIBILITY_MODE', true );
Hello all,
My setup:
1. I’ve upgraded last week my MU from 2.8.5 to 2.8.6.
2. Buddypress is version 1.1.2.
I have a similar issue with user slugs that have a blank space converted to a dash in them.
For example, this does not work:
http://centres-sociaux.fr/members/dominique-garet/
When I activate the compability mode, the new slug doesn’t work either:
http://centres-sociaux.fr/members/dominique garet/
Yet, with or without compability mode, alpha character slugs work just fine, like this:
http://centres-sociaux.fr/members/kgjerstad/
I also changed the user_nicename in wp_users to see if that had any effect, but it also failed to fix the issue:
http://centres-sociaux.fr/members/dgaret/
Any tips, or hints, would be greatly appreciated.
PS. This is my first posting in the forums, so I take the opportunity to show my appreciation to this lively community and to the great features BP offers. Longlive the Open source communities!
Hei Andy!
Thanks for your help! It works fine. Can you maybe explain what the compatibility-mode is?
Thanks a lot!
Markus
