Whaooo, that needs an attention

Users can not create a user name in another language but English ?
In my case is in Hebew.

This is a screen shot that I tried after 2 reports from my testers... 

For me it is a show breaker... can't go live with wpForo or am I missing something? 

Thank you

As a temporary solution I'll change the error message to indicate that the name must be in English.

Thank you yossik, we'll check if WordPress allow this kind of usernames and then add it in our to-do list.

Thank you Martin,

I've checked it again using WordPress native "add user" and I got the same results.
So, It may be something in my setup and not a flow in wpForo.
WordPress was installed in English and then I've changed to local language.

Help?
Thnx

There is no way to do that if WordPress doesn't allow.
