[Plugin: FeedWordPress] Syndicated authors with empty names (3 posts)

    FWP creates users with empty usernames if username does not contain alphanumeric characters

    I've found this solution: Install Transliterado and use this code:

    if(function_exists(sanitize_title_transliterado))
    			{
    				$this->post['named']['author'] = apply_filters('syndicated_item_author', sanitize_title_transliterado($this->author()), $this);
    			}
    			else
    			{
    				$this->post['named']['author'] = apply_filters('syndicated_item_author', $this->author(), $this);
    			}

    near line 50 in syndicatedpost.class.php

    I'd prefer FWP be more international in this case

    Hi,

    Could you send along a URL for one or more feed(s) where you're encountering the problem of empty usernames being generated? I'd be glad to take a look at this and see if I can work up a solution for the next release of FeedWordPress.

    Thanks,
    Charles Johnson
