EOSHD Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 Love V4.0 so far, great job - but I'm a bit worried that the default login protocol has shifted away from 'usernames'. People tend not to like to use their email address as they may forget which one they registered with and it is much longer to enter. They may not realise that Display Name = username and they might have a different display name to their username, which would lead to confusion upon logging in.Is there any chance the login handler can be set to accept all 3 ways?I'm experiencing a bug where none of my users cannot log out. Is this known?Cheers - Andrew Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ahmad E. Posted December 21, 2014 Share Posted December 21, 2014 The displayname has been removed in IPB4, there is only one name which is the username and the displayname.In ACP -> Settings -> Login Handlers -> Standardyou can allow your members to login with the username or the email or both.

EOSHD Posted December 22, 2014 Author Share Posted December 22, 2014 Ok so doesn't it make more sense to label it "username" as per IP Board 3.4 then? That's what users are used to. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ahmad E. Posted December 22, 2014 Share Posted December 22, 2014 It doesn't really matter but you can easily change it to username with the translator function. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
