    Hello,

    to avoid confusion of member profiles with similar usernames, you can manually enable the following option in config_vbseo.php file:
    define('VBSEO_REWRITE_MEMBER_MORECHARS', 1);

    Don't mean to hijack this thread, but that particular option seems unable to handle usernames containing a forward-slash character (as we discovered this morning).

    Any fix for this, aside from excluding such characters?

    In fact, avatars appear to break for users with a forward-slash character in their username as well.
