Where to put $allowMail variable for login with email

[kyksh]

Hi!

I need users to login by their email address. This works when I change the value in ProcessLogin.module

 122     protected $useEmailLogin = null;

to

122     protected $useEmailLogin = true;

What would be a recommended way to enable this?

There's this line in ProcessLogin.module:

  15  * @property bool|int $allowEmail Whether or not email login is allowed (0|false=off, 1|true=Yes, 2=Yes or name also allowed)

But I can't figure out how to set this. I tried next to $useEmailLogin in ProcessLogin.module and in config.php, but neither takes effect.

BTW I tried module LoginWithEmail but it seems outdated. My PW version is 3.0.165

You can change that through the module settings. In your backend, go to Modules -> Configure -> ProcessLogin. There you'll find the Login Type setting which you can set to allow login with username, email or both.

So embarrasingly easy. Need to check out more PW basics...

Thank you!
