Hello,

Please help me. Many people enter username at register page using cyrillic charaters. Also several use social networks for login where they have name in cyrillic. As result in wp_users in database I have users with such usernicknames: @%d0%b2%d0%b0%d0%bd%d1%8f, for example. In user profile I see the same situation.
What should I do for works with latin and cyrillic names? I checked database and my rows have utf8mb4_unicode_520_ci.
Thank you!

BuddyPress uses the WordPress user database, so I think this is more of a general WordPress issue than one specific to BuddyPress in that if you removed BuddyPress and allowed user registrations to WordPress you would still be faced with the same issue.

You could raise this as a bug on BuddyPress Trac. but I think it’s probably WordPress that would need to change.
