Title: Message thing broken
Post by: Thork on December 04, 2013, 11:32:38 PM
The message system that recognises usernames when you type the first 3 or so letters is broken.

This is a very recent thing.

Please fix

I wonder if it is a permissions thing.  It works when I start to type piz... but no one else.

I see the problem. It's SMF being... well, being SMF. It will only work for members whose names start in lowercase (so it works for pizaaplanet, rooster and junker; but not for Parsifal or Thork). I'll see what I can do about it.

Fixed. Is it working for you now, Thork?

It works as long as I start typing the name in the proper case.  It may have worked that way all along as I hadn't tried.

Yes, it would do that. It only just occurred to me that people might want to use it in a case-insensitive manner. Fixed.

Perfect, thank you.

Consider the matter closed.
