User still can’t register – lower case issue

    @isabeauesby

    I have a person who wants to register but every time they try, they aren’t able to. They receive red letter message that says only lowercase and numbers can be used. I have walked through this with her and she is using lowercase and numbers only. She is not the only one running into this problem on my site. Some have said they get out of the page, come back and then it works. I am afraid I am loosing sign ups. Are there things I can look for to fix this?

    As you are using the Parallelus theme – it might be worth asking on their support forums if this is a known problem

    I have and they keep telling me to go to the BuddyPress Default theme and to ask you guys. I feel ignorant. But I don’t know what they mean. I suspect they are talking about the templates I can choose from when creating or editing a page (Default template or bb-press template)??
    Sorry… really missing something here and it is most likely simple.

    No, they are talking about changing your entire theme, not a page template

    From Appearance … Themes… choose bp-default, and test if it works

    If it fails in bp-default as well, there is something wrong with your installation.

    if it works in bp-default, it’s something wrong in your Parallelus theme.

    However, that’s not easy for you to do if your site is already live. The best option would be to set up a separate test installation to test these things on. It sounds like you probably need to engage a developer if you go down that route.

    I may have to do that. I instructed her to retry registering. This time with a different user name. She succeeded in registering but now this is what is happening to her. This is what she sent me…

    “Well, I just tried registering with the user name firefox and it acted like it was going to let me in. I went to email and clicked on the activation link, and the registration came back with a red “invalid registration key.” Also, when my name was listed on your site, (all compliantly in lower case letters, of course) there was a red “delete” after my name. I haven’t checked to see if your site has made good on its implied threat. Dina”

    If that strikes any red flags of knowledge, please let me know. Otherwise I may need to contact a developer.

    Thank you for attending to this. Your help is appreciated and now I understand what they mean by theme change.
