Username *** error

I have one user called Leanne and one user called *Leanne*, when they try and view there profile, they both end up view the profile of Leanne. Two different user going to the same profile

Is this something to do with the * being treated as a wild card ? - anyway to fix this issue. The problem is they can see each other private hidden details ??

They won't see anything private; they will just see the wrong Profile page, just as if any other user viewed another user's profile page. No security issues with it...

But, to fix it: Links to member profile pages: Rewrite problems with special chars

Uhh I don't know if this is a bug or not but why do I see those weird "%2A" thing in the member's profile URL?

Here's what I mean: Final Fantasy Forums

It is supposed to show up as an astrik (*) and not that thing. O_o

If you don't want to have the userid in the URL format, then that's the way they will show. If you use the userid in your member profile URL format, all special characters will be stripped out instead of converted to their encoded format.
