Happy New Year all!

Just noticed a slight bug I think with the way that BBPress deals with @mentions since this TRAC ticket for the way BP handles usernames with spaces in.

So basically a new username can now HAVE spaces in it.

When we use that username with spaces in BBPress it isn’t happy and wont work, unless it’s hyphenated.

Let me know if you’d like me to make a TRAC ticket for it.

Ahh, might hvae this mixed up.

@mentions still need the hyphens from what I can see, but there are new calls to get an @mention safe name from the username with spaces.

Will report back.

Yep, ignore this guys.

I was simply using the old template tag for the username and not the new one to display the @mention name.
