When we activate the URL shortner, spaces get translated to dashes.
So the username Golden Boy becomes golden-boy.
However, that URL gives a 404 error.
If I manually replace the dash with a %20 the URL works correctly.
eg username is Golden Boy
Pre URL shortner: http://www.kiwiklub.com/profile/31441-golden-boy (works correctly)
Post URL shortner: http://www.kiwiklub.com/golden-boy (gives 404 error)
However, this URL works correctly: http://www.kiwiklub.com/golden%20boy
How do we fix this so that usernames with spaces and special characters work correctly?
