Hi, I think the word wrap function is great, so i've set it to 50 characters, because I so no reason why a user should post a word longer than this.

The problem is that it insert a space in urls too (often more than 50 characters) !! making the links invalid :(

So I've put it to to 200, but I just have a user posting huuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuggggggggggggggggggggg ggee words and it ruined it.

Please, make the word wrap IGNORE urls, images.....

Minor request, but it must be corrected so we can really benefit from this function.
Thanks,
Benj

This also goes for the email confirmation.

We've discovered that the email confirmation that is sent to people who use a username with a space in the middle "Joe Black" instead of "joeblack" or choose a password with a space in it...makes that link to click to confirm their email invalid....

ARGH! Can you fix that in the next version?

Kathy,

Read thread http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showthread.php?threadid=1374 - there is an interim solution in there.

I will look into URLs problem.

Regarding the email confirmation problem, you should get the activationemail template from the members area - it has the neccessary fixes for that problem.
