Hi @elotr,

wpForo Nickname doesn't have 16-character limit by default, I'm trying to test in your website, but cannot edit profile information, as you have min post limit.

In case you want to say thank you !)
We'd really appreciate and be thankful if you leave a good review on plugin page. This is the best way to say thank you to this project and support team.

@Chris, I will remove the minimum post limit temporarily so you can play around. I have several issues with my site including members not being able to change their profile pic (myself included). The 16 character limit is a new issue for nicknames.

@elotr,

You have set Minimum characters limit on nickname field using the addon.
