Insights author link is broken by space character

[pbuk]

As title: the auto-generated link is like https://www.physicsforums.com/insights/author/Dr . Courtney/ but it needs to be https://www.physicsforums.com/insights/author/Dr.+Courtney/ to work.

It really ought to be (per the HTTP standard) https://www.physicsforums.com/insights/author/Dr. Courtney/ but this doesn't work presumably because of a URL rewriting hack.

Yeah there is a bug with the bridge we are using to connect the forum to wordpress. Wordpress doesn't allow spaces in usernames, but the bridge still creates them. It is a known problem and hopefully fixed soon.
