Description Aaron Axelsen 2009-02-17 14:23:05 UTC When trying to change user rights, if the username has a space in it the Special:Userrights page does not recognize it. I have tried the user in the following formats: Aaron Axelsen Aaron_Axelsen AaronAxelsen None of those are recognized by the page. Comment 1 Aaron Schulz 2009-02-17 14:34:33 UTC I don't have this problem Comment 2 Chad H. 2009-02-17 17:12:59 UTC Can't replicate here either. Do you have any extensions related to users/rights/groups/permissions/etc? Comment 3 Aaron Schulz 2009-02-28 05:08:43 UTC Closed
