So I'm using the Google plugin to format member profiles url to appear as sharree.com/User-usernamehere

However I just noticed that if a user has a period in their username (e.g. sharree.com/User-username.here) they'll get redirected to a 404 error page.

I'm assuming it's recognizing what's after the period as the page file extension rather than a username. Any fix to this?

Is this with default MyBB friendly urls or a plugin?

Google SEO plugin. I realized it was just occurring on one page. I went into the template code and found this href wrapped on the usernames.
href="User-{member['username']}"

changed it to use the profilelink variable. Working fine now.
