Hi,

I'm designing a site in eZp 3.5.0, and don't want to bother users with coming up with, and remembering, a login name. The only fields they have to provide upon registering are first name, last name, email address and password. Logging in should be possbible by providing email and password. However, I think removing the login field completely will cause eZp to stop working correctly. The email address field is also needed, since confirmation mails etc. need to be send to the user.

A solution may be to force the login and email address to be the same. I tried this by remove the login field from register.tpl, and modify setInformation() in kernel/classes/datatypes/ezuser/ezuser.php so it will set the login field of the user according to the provided email address.

Apart from the fact that this method is not preferable (modifying kernel code), it doesn't work satisfactory either. Users can register with an already existing email address, to name a problem.

Is there anyone who knows a solution to solve this problem nicely? Maybe this is possible a lot easier in a way that I'm not aware of.

Thanks, Remco.

Hi Remco,

I think your problem can be solved with just a few ini settings instead of modifying code and templates.

You can activate the following in site.ini (either global override or per siteaccess):

[UserSettings]
RequireUniqueEmail=true
AuthenticateMatch=email

This will force unique email addresses, and let users login using their email address instead of their username.

Hi Hans,

I tried the lines in my site.ini (and cleared the cache), but still no unique email addresses are required. I can register a user with an email address that already exits in the system, and the registration is still successful.

Remco,

I believe this is a bug. I couldn't find any code that checks for existing email addresses (even though the INI setting exists). Nor /user/register, nor the user datatype/class does any checking.

Hans,

I posted a bug report about the RequireUniqueEmail settings here: http://www.ez.no/bugs/view/6207

In the meantime, anyone got another solution for the original problem?

Remco
