BuddyPress.org

Tony-

I had this issue as well about a month ago. The solution is simple. You need to create a new account.

Why? Because, like me, you created an account with a space in your account name (username). Also like me, you choose to use your real name. Logically enough, you put a space between your first and last name. You can see that by hovering your cursor over your name. Do you see the “%20”? That is the space.

This is not a BuddyPress issue. This is an issue with the way that WPMU processes new registrations, allowing spaces in usernames. Unfortunately, this can cause issues.

Andy knows more about this issue than I do, but suffice it to say, when creating your new username, do not put a space in it.
