Login with user name or email instead of user id


Proxima

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.

Login with user name or email instead of user id


Proxima

amartins:
I need to login with username or user email and password instead of using user id and password: is there a way to achieve this?

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!

brian:
do you mean after the user modifies an existing comment the comment is no longer visible?
No. It is not possible to modify an invisible comment.

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!

You are not notified of every new post - you will be notified that there is a new post once - if you visit this thread again it will "reset", so the next new post will notify you again.

audio_album_download_count or something like that


Using Jamroom

Not without creating something custom - the problem is that an audio album is NOT related to a single item, and therefore has no DS entry that could "hold" the counter.

@brian hi,
The user has created his account and "profile1", and then he created his second "profile2". Then he deleted the first "profile1". Then he renamed the second "profile2" in the "profile1".
In this case, we were not able to see the absence of his first profile.

You will no longer see anything named "profile2" since it has been renamed "profile1" - however, the _profile_id of the "new" profile1 will be the id of the old profile2. So it may look the same, but it is different.

Quote:
In this case, the Jamroom allows him to write comments and change the rating of any items.

This is not an issue and is correct - ratings and comments belong to the USER account, not the profile, therefore they can still be changed since the USER did not change.

Quote:
BUT, his account will be able to change the rating and write comments (but his comments will be invisible to anyone!) - that's the problem!

I don't understand this part - do you mean after the user modifies an existing comment the comment is no longer visible?

Thanks!

Can I see the number of downloads for the audio album?

There is no download count available for albums - sorry!
