how to allow login in with email using the asp signup component


as the title says how do o allow users to sign in using the email they specified when they registered.

using asp 3.5 , both the login and signup are the ones that are built-in visual studio.

also is there a way to remove the secret question and answer.

thanks


Solution

  • My simplest and effective workaround for this was to do the following:

    1- Rename the label of username field as E-mail: ( so the user will see it Email, but it's actually still the username that ASP.NET membership will save).

    2- Save my entry normally along side with any additional info I need to save

    3- now my users will be forced to login using their provided Email

    4- Smile :)
