Hello, as I manetioned in this WP thread, I cannot change the admin's name and nickname, which is stored as john-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2-2. I tried to change it and cached the site but it doesn’t get saved.

Is anyone else having this issue??

Hi @agendavolo,

Does it work for others? Is this a user specific issue?

Please try to put some very unique nickname, for example "xmdj3ed". And leave some URL to your forum to allow us check it.

...I cannot really do that because my users subscribe to the site via a system that requires payments, i.e. not directly via the forum. Should I maybe change it in the database?

On the other hand, the problem is with the Admin, so maybe I could exclude Admin from the forum members? If so, how?

Could this problem be related to several JS errors you have ?
