Does not allow username with dot or dash

  • I cannot set a username with – or .
    I did not disallow these characters but it keeps giving me the message that these are illegal characters. Can you advise? Thanks.

    you can use these characters _ . - @ but – it is not -

    you can authorize this – we put it in “Allow this characters (Symbols or characters accented as é ?)”.

    I only put “@” as a disallowed character for the username but it flags usernames with dots or dash, eg, “first.last” or “first-last”.
    I tried specifically allowing the “.” and “-” characters in the “Allow this characters (Symbols or characters accented as é ?)” section but the username is still flagged as an error.

    I tried this “first.last” and “first-last”, and I did’nt find any errors, everything is normal.

    DO you know if this plugin is compatible with Gravity Forms? It is happening there.
