    It is a pity does not work with SimpleModal Login (wordpress) 🙁

    There's an issue with invalid usernames. If I put "admin" as the username, the error message is "Only lowercase letters and numbers allowed" instead of something like 'cant use that name'.

      Hi Shawn,
      I am sorry for the inconvenience. Which version of the plugin are you using? Is it 1.1.1?
      When I type admin, I see this message "This usename is taken, please choose another one."

      Can you please provide more details about your setup(WordPress, is it multisite, using BuddyPress and from which page do you see this message )

      Thank you
      Brajesh

    Hello,
    The plugin does not support checking Uppercase letters. How to solve this?
