I have not completely logged off of Tapatalk since installing it on my phone. The other day I completely logged off for about a half hour. When I went to log back in, it would not let me use Ravens Fan as my username because of the space between words, so I had to use my email address as my user name. That worked to get me in, but the push messages weren't working right. After a few hours, they started working, but then I noticed that I cannot do a few things. I cannot thank or quote any posts, and I cannot get access into the VIP room. This is only on Tapatalk, I can still do everything via my laptop.

Any thoughts?

You might try logging in to the full site and then switching over to tapatalk.

So log in via the browser?

Yes. That should establish your credentials. Then switch over.

Tried. :)


Seems to be a tapatalk bug: https://support.tapatalk.com/threads/bug-no-spaces-in-user-name-allowed.18798/



Only other idea would be to change your user name, remove the space. I think I could do that...scary though, what if you can't get back in! Let's wait for some other mods, admin....

Ravens Fan I'm not sure what the issue is. I don't use Tapatalk myself. It seems that the space in user name issue is well known. Here's another thread on it:

If you've already tried rebooting your phone, next I would try deleting the Tapatalk app and then reinstalling the latest version to see if that works. Please note there is also a mobile style available (select it from the bottom left corner of the page) if you prefer to use that instead of Tapatalk.

Ravens Fan, I'll take admin's thanks as a yes I can change your account name, take out the space. I need to step out for a while, run some errands and such. When we're both online later I'll go ahead and do this.

Ooops, try what admin suggests first.

Thank you Admin, I will try the ways you listed first. I have gotten used to Tapatalk, and the push notifications are helpful, so I would like to continue using it.

Thanks, guys. I had to remove Tapatalk and reinstall, but it is working fine now.

It probanly updated after the log off.

Updates generally mean shit stops working.
