I am testing A2B 1.3 and now the system let customer login using the card alias and password(the password can be changed by customer after activated the account)

The problem is that the card alias is a random long number and it is not easy for people to remember. Is it passable to let the customer login using their registered email address?

I seems read a earlier post discussed this and I couldn't find it. :oops:

Please give me some advices on this. I just started testing and people already complain about this.

Using branches/1.3 and trunk it's already possible to login using email/webuipassword in addition to cardalias/webuipassword.

I'm not sure exactly when it was added, but it will be in v1.3.1 if/when it is tagged for release.
Digilab kindly provided the patch to implement this a long time ago: emailogin.patch

I'm using 1.3.0 and YES it is already patched and I just don't know about it. Silly me! :oops:

So I just need modify the "SIGNUP CONFIRMATION" email template to let the customer know that they can login using email/passwd.

Thanks!

Added after 59 minutes:

OK, one more question....

Currently customer can signup multiple times by using the same email address.

However, I think it should work like this:
1. Customer initially signup using his/her email.
2. For whatever reason, if the customer try to use the same email address to sign up again, the system (A2B) should notice the customer that the email has been registered already. Then A2B should offer the customer retrieve his/her password so the customer would keep using the same account.

Does this make any sense? or maybe I am wrong. :oops:

I guess you're referring to the suggestion: "if the customer try to use the same email address to sign up again, the system (A2B) should notice the customer that the email has been registered already. Then A2B should offer the customer retrieve his/her password so the customer would keep using the same account."

Would you mind sharing your changes with us please? I think this would be quite a popular feature.

Thanks.
