Then i try to register with : “Ian Johnson”, with a space between both and i see the message “Congrats ….” it’s available, when i fill all other fields and i submit the form i see on top of the form ” username aleady exists”

    Hi Mac,
    Thank you for opening a new topic. I appreciate it.

    1. Are you on a normal WordPress site or multisite?
    2. Are you using any other plugin that may affect registration/username?

    Please let me know and I will assist.

    Regards
    Brajesh

    Hi,

    I’m using a normal WordPress site (buddypress).
    Using those plugins, don’t know if there is no compatibility

    – BuddyPress Xprofile Custom Field Types
    – Smart WP Login
    – Username Changer
    – WordPress Username Availability Checker (your plugin)
    – BuddyPress Profile Pro

    Thanks

    Hi Mac,
    Thank you.

    The usernames will be treated different on a normal WordPress install. “ian johnson” becomes “ian-johnson” for nice name.

    The problem is BuddyPress is removing the space before inserting user

    
$user_login     = preg_replace( '/\s+/', '', sanitize_user( $user_login, true ) );

    This was unexpected.

    Anyway, I will push a release today or tomorrow with this fix and will let you know.

    Regards
    Brajesh
