Capitalization does not match when you open user cards using mentions

when you click on @qwe_rfv, It will work normally
But when you click on @QwE_rFv… did you get it?

I think this is related Missing capitalisation in username on usercard opened from message participants
On user card the username is case sensitive. I think it push the mentioned username to the user card.

Yes, That’s right. But Isn’t @Don really ummm… kind of bad?
I think It got to be like this: when someone mention @QwE_rFv , automatically turn Into @qwe_rfv

I don’t think that the user called BenDover would agree with you :thinking:

Why not always match the username? So beNdOVeR would become BenDover.

Because these are two different usernames maybe?

No, usernames on Discourse are case aware but not case sensitive. USER, user and UsEr Are the same user.

I am putting pr-welcome on this.

When you click @sAm you should probably see sam in the user card … not sAm

It is very minor, has very little user impact, probably an easy fix to correct it after the card loads all the data from the server.
