Unable to login using nickname
Hi, I have a fresh flarum installation with the Nicknames extension enabled.
All the options (allow setting nicknames on registration, randomize usernames, require unique usernames) are set to true, on Basics I've also set 'nickname' on User Display Name.
I've registered an account with a nickname, but when I try to log in the system returns the "Your login details were incorrect." error. If I use the associated email instead of the nickname with the same password, I can log in without issues.
I'm migrating a very very old phpBB forum and a lot of the old users have spaces in the username, that's why I thought the nickname extension would have saved me. I know I could tell everyone to use their mail instead but I also know my users, and I know that would cause at least half of them to have issues (I'd like to avoid a thousand phone calls/skype/discord messages and so on).

This is the last remaining issue on this very difficult forum migration I'm working on, so I hope I'm just burned out and the solution is in front of my eyes and I just can't see it. Thanks for your help!
