Synconise email address

Hi Tuan,

I look forward to this fix to ensure the MP email address always matches the email address in joomla.

I have another related issue. I'm using MP for all joomla registration. I have mp set to use email as username. I have joomla set to don't allow username edit.

In profile edit, the username field is readonly, which is correct. When the user changes their email, I would expect the joomla username to be changed to the new email address. In other words the username and email should always be the same. Can you fix?

Hi Larry

I remember I fixed it recently. When users update the email his username will be updated

Could you please access to My Downloads menu item, download the updated package, update it to your site, then try again?

Hi Tuan,

Thanks for the quick reply.

I downloaded and updated but the problem is still there. I have "use_email_as_userid" set. I go into user profile. I change the email address. In joomla profile the email is changed but the username stays the same.

I have fixed it by changing the controller. But I don't want to have to do this.

profile.php in the site model controller

$params = JComponentHelper::getParams('com_users');

// my changes below

$use_email_as_username='1'; //I dont know how to get this parameter within the controller so I force to true for my case

if ($params->get('change_login_name') || $use_email_as_username) //LG

{

if ( $use_email_as_username )

{

$username = $data;

} else {

$username = $data;

}

//end of my changes

$filterInput = JFilterInput::getInstance(); ...

Sorry, maybe this is better

Controller is not the right place to make the change. The right place must be in model. To make sure you are having correct files installed, please:

1. Get this file, unzip it, upload to folder components/com_osmembership/model on your site

2. Access to user profile page, change the email (make sure that email must be a unique email, different from all existing users' emails)

3. Then check it again

if it still does not work, please submit a support ticket sending us:

- Super admin account of your site
- A subscriber account
- Link to the user profile page
- Tell us the email you are trying to change to

I will check to see what's wrong and get it sorted

Regards,

Tuan
