Login with user name or email instead of user id

Installation and Configuration


Ahh - got it - that makes sense. I just pushed out version 1.0.6 of the Proxima User module - you can now sign in by passing a "user_name", "user_email" OR "id" parameter, along with password. The response will now include the "_id" key - so even if they sign in using a user_name or user_email, you will now get the correct _id that should be used on the client.

Let me know if that works for you.

Hope this helps!

It already enforces unique name/email - make sure in the ACP -> Proxima -> Proxima Users -> Global Config that you have selected "Require unique "user_name" and "user_email" fields" - that will enforce the uniqueness on those keys.

When you register a user in your app you will get back an "_id" key - you will want to store that key on the device and use that going forward - that's what I would recommend.

Let me know if that helps.

audio_album_download_count or something like that

Correct - an album is a collection of ID's and doesn't have an idea of it's own.

Quick question for you - are you unable to store the user_id that is returned when the account is created? The reason I ask is that other user functionality (updating account, deleting account) need the ID for the update as well.

Actually looking at this this would be an easy update - give me a bit here and I can get it supported.

Welcome to Jamroom!

It's best if you can use the ID - this let's the core lookup the account very quickly - otherwise it has to "search" for an account with a matching user name to get the account info. Are you in a situation where you can't store the ID?

Thanks!

OK - I will see if I can replicate here. We've not had anyone else report it, so it sounds like a very rare/corner case issue.

It's still there:

Just bookmark it - we're going to be simplifying some of the site pages, menus and links and highlighting our hosting more.

Thanks!

That doesn't help me - that could be completely unrelated. I am trying to get clarification on my last question for the specific scenario you outlined:

do you mean after the user modifies an existing comment the comment is no longer visible?

Thanks!
