Default Use E-mail address instead of username

Hi

We want to use email as username. so far (prior to me) our company has used uname, now they asked me to bring some changes to user registration, one part of the change is to hide the uname and use email instead.



After reading the thread like http://forum.x-cart.com/showthread.php?t=8809&highlight=username+email



and some others;





I have changed it, now it seems to be registering ok but not editing/updating profile (it bounce back to profile page) has anyone done the same, if yes what files are to be changed?


OTHER ISSUES

I have changed the login.php file to accept email as username.
But I donâ–“t really know what other php files should I change in order for this to work for existing/new customers.

Email of new customer will be copied to the uname field of database. But, what other changes should I do so that when an existing customer forgets his/her password?

I have used different tpl files for customer bit because I wanted to still use the xcart procedure for admin bit.

Do I have to use separate php files too?

What other issues should take into consideration

any advice help will be appreciated

thanks
