Description

Im using BP 1.5.3.1 and WP 3.3. I noticed whenever I tried to change my name from 'admin' to something else I got the message that changes were succesfully saved. But when I checked the name it still says 'admin'. I tried this with member accounts and the problem remains. I have no other plugin active other then Buddypress. So its a bug.

I had a similar problem when I upgraded 1.5.1 to 1.5.4. But another BP user suggested a solution, and it worked on my environment, too.

  • Milestone changed from Awaiting Review to 1.5.5

Logged in, I am able to change my username with any kind of account. Can you test this using Trunk or over at testbp.org and report back if you're able to duplicate there?
