See: <a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/upon-update-15-you-cannot-use-the-email-field-to-populate-the-username-field#post-246441" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/forums/topic/upon-update-15-you-cannot-use-the-email-field-to-populate-the-username-field#post-246441</a></p> <p>...which means there will never be a conflict when they go to choose a sub-domain for their network site. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/site-address-and-username-conflict#post-321962 Thu, 13 Jun 2013 23:27:21 +0000 chobson 321962@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I'm using the action "Update User" to allow an already logged in user to "create a new site" on my multisite network. However, I've run in to a minor quirk: If I use the username as the Site address I get a validation error, "Sorry, that site is reserved!"</p> <p>I created a quick screencast and uploaded the (unlisted) video here: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0tSO05qlAoY" rel="nofollow">https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0tSO05qlAoY</a></p> <p>Of course I can use any "Site Address" other than the username and it works fine. Has anyone run into this before? Thoughts? </p> <p>How can I solve this conflict? Thanks! </p>
