It’s showing You have used an invalid username for newly registered members.

  • I have created a blog site where people can log in and write their blog. First, two days all was okay. but now newly registered members can’t log in. an error shows that You have used an invalid username. I created a many accounts for check and used the right uname and pass. but it is showing the same. I think updating any plugins or changing somethings causes this problem. Please help me. It is urgent.
    Hope I’m able to explain the problem.

  • If you added any plugins you can disable them and test the login. If the site works normally you know it one of the plugins. You can reenable the plugins one by one and test the log in each time to see if the problem comes back. If one of the plugins is causing the problem notify the author of the plugin and explain the problem. If you want to see what users are being created you can use a program like phpmyadmin select your database and look for the wp_user table. The table will show all the users. You however will not be able to display the password. The passwords are encrypted using md5. This is a one-way encryption which means once encrypted you can’t unencrypt them. You can change the password by clicking the edit link and setting the function to md5 and reentering the password in the Value field.

    I did it two times. but deactivating or deleting any plugins is not solving the issue. :'( what should I do?

    Did you check the user’s table in your database to see if the user is getting added? If you don’t have PHPMyAdmin check with your host provider to see how to access your database. WordPress stores all the users and passwords in a table called wp_users. The name of the table could be different if you choose to use a different prefix than wp_. Even though you can’t tell what the password is you can copy the existing password and change the function to md5 and reenter the password. The old and new encrypted passwords should match.

    If all that looks good you know the problem has to be with retrieving the password and not storing it. If however, none of the user data is being stored you know the problem is with storing the information.

    Hello dear. I found the issue but dunno how to solve it.
    I’ve created the registration form with essential addons for elementor. but the password it’s receiving is not stored as the password of the account. WordPress sends a difficult password for the account via e-mail. and the user can log in with that one. they can change the password from their account setting. if I use the default form for registrations, it works well. but the problem occurs when they registered via the essential addons registration forms. how can I solve it?
