Email for username

[Gatsu]

Has it been suggested yet or implemented that we would be able to emails as login details?

 

Our in-site records show that 42% of individuals attempt to use an email as their username before realizing that they must use a standard username. This number is up from 21% from 4 years ago.

 

Considering most of the web is heading toward the standard of having the users email be their login this would seem like a great choice with v2

 

As a transition into this effect maybe have the ability for users to login with either their username or email and the providers that wish can purely setup accounts with no username.

 

let me know your thoughts.

This would be so much easier for customers

I agree, this would be nice feature. If taken a step further though so that the user could utilize either email, username or both would be even better. Then you could cover 100% of those clients preferences.

I will add it as an option in the security settings.
