usernames have to be lowercase all one word no spaces – capitals and spaces will reject
to add that info to your registration form
you can edit the registration form from your theme from the backend menu
Appearance – Editor – register.php

the problem is confined to replies to postings in a group activity stream

its ok if you reply in the main activity stream and if you view the post first then reply

if a reply goes missing if you view the original post and then reply to it hey presto the missing reply is visible again

my guess its a bug in the group activity loop

I should have said it can’t be a cookie issue unless the cookie is on the server which makes no sense

Its not the same computer @modemlooper – somehow the registration form prompts this phantom name – it can’t be a cookie issue – haven’t found a fix yet @jaredgoyette

one futher clue is that I found the firstname second name field on my admin profile had been changed to ANNE and PORTER

[@peterhatch Participant 13 years, 10 months ago]

thanks @modemlooper

its the registration form not the login that autofills

i reckon it must be a cookie issue – a cookie that remembers what you have put in each box so that if it flags up an incorrect entry you don’t have to start over again

somehow it has written the cookie to my server?

i’ve tracked the member that caused the problem – joined 8 days ago – but am unlikely to find out what she did to screw the works
