Email for username causes problems with mentions and private messaging.

[nhoover]

When members use emails for their usernames the @name returned in their profile is incorrect. This also affects the ability to send a private message from their profile.

For example a Username of "name@email(dot)com" returns @nameemail-com

I can't recreate this on trunk. Any chance of a screenshot so I can check I tested the same thing?

[nhoover]

username is an email account. Look at the @name that buddypress creates. I can see why because of the permalink structure.

Thanks; that's what I was looking at. Need someone else to confirm I've not missed it, perhaps it's an issue already fixed since 1.2.5.

Okay, got it. Have you set
define( 'BP_ENABLE_USERNAME_COMPATIBILITY_MODE', true );
in your wp-config.php?

[nhoover]

No I do not have this set. Sorry for the delayed response, been out of town.

This can be closed. Seems to have been fixed.
