BuddyPress.org

This is very strange, and I have tested it on two separate BP installations (both1.0.1). One of these is a vanilla install with no additional plugins.

Step 1:

– Go to BP page and hit the “sign up” button

– Sign up with username = “testuser1” and full name = “Test User One”

– Activate and log in

Result:

– User is created, but with full name = “testuser1” (*not* “Test User One”)

– No sign of “Test User One” field in wp_bp_xprofile_data

Step 2:

– Log testuser1 out from BP

– Go to BP page and hit the “sign up” button

– Sign up with username = “testuser2” and full name = “Test User Two”

– Activate and log in

Result:

– User is created, but with full name = “Test User One” (that’s right, “One” when it should be “Two”)

– “Test User One” has appeared in wp_bp_xprofile_data with testuser2’s ID

Thinking this might be some weirdness in the browser’s cookie handling I have tried this with Safari and Firefox. Repro’s on both. I figure it must be something related to cookies though. How else would the full name jump the sessions? Weird.

Has anyone else seen this? I have searched the forums with no joy.
