URL to your eFiction:  http://gatchfanfic.com/efiction
Version of eFiction: 3.2.1
Have you bridged eFiction, if so with what?: No.
Any mods installed?: challenges, Beta Reader
Have you modified your eFiction?: Yes, solution for slash in series name
Version of PHP: 4.4.4
Version of MySQL: 4.1.21-standard
Have you searched for your problem: Yes.
If so, what terms did you try:  hyphenated, hyphens, usernames

I see that someone has posted about this a little while ago, but I still wasn't able to get this to work. I've tried creating a new one with a hyphen in the name, an old one with one added afterwards. Either way, when I try later to to log in, there is only a blank page. I have Debug turned on, but nothing comes up. Nothing but http://www.gatchfanfic.com/efiction/user.php?action=login comes up in the address bar. I don't see any errors anywhere.

Thanks!

Change the hyphens to underscores for now. I've always used a name with an underscore, and it allows me to log in.


Whoever said nothing is impossible never tried slamming a revolving door.

After updating to version 3.3, unfortunately this little problem wasn't fixed. So far only one author has asked for it, so it's not life & death right now.  πŸ˜†

Bump.  This should be working with 3.3.1.

It works perfectly fine now with 3.3.1. I had two users with this problem and now they are again able to login. Thanks a lot, this is great.
