Can't log into the wiki? - Mia_S - 12-04-2014
Hi, I joined yesterday, and I can't log in to the wiki. The username is the same as our forum name, right? I tried using that, and it said "Login error
There is no user by the name "Mia_S". Check your spelling."
What should I do? You can clearly see that I made no typo.

Unfortunately, the authentication for the wiki doesn't like names with underscores in them; it's because of differences in how MediaWiki and MyBB handle underscores. So, you just need to remove the underscore in your username on the forums or change it into a dash or space, then you'll be good to go!
EDIT: Clarifying a little. You need to change your username on the forums to remove the underscore for the wiki login to work.

So I have to make another forum account then? Okay.

No no, just gotta change your username.
EDIT: You can do it here.
