Numeric Usernames and Private Messaging

  • Hi,
    I am currently developing a buddypress website where the login username is a 7 digit number. I have installed a fresh copy of the latest version of buddypress (1.5.6) and WordPress (3.4).

    What I have found that if I private message a member whos login user name is not purely numeric it works fine and the message is sent. If I try to send a message to a member with a pure numeric login username such as 345 or 2433222 it doesn’t matter the length of the number I get a red box at the top of the private message form with the message “There was an error sending that message, please try again”.

    Members with a numeric username can send message fine aswell. Whats weird is if they start the private message conversation the the reply functionality works fine with a numeric username.

    Is this a bug with buddypress core?
