I’m using the latest - 1.54. I originally tried using
&emailField=`username`
and this did not work and it worked fine with the snippet.
Correction - it needs the &emailField=`username` line...that is to send out the activation email, however, the email address was not getting saved in the user table, and that’s what the snippet does.
Note that I just have an Email field, and the two password fields and I wanted the user to use their email as the username.
Hi I hope someone can help.
I've set up Login and Register and the update profile page etc, but I also want to use the email as the username.
Can anyone please let me know what to change in my snippets and also advise if this now works (as the thread is pretty old) or if I have to add a pre-hook also?
Thanks for any help. I have tried adding &usernameField=`email` to my Register call but it then won't let me register on testing. Also how does this affect the Profile page and updating your profile?
Thanks again for any support.

What are you trying to do here, just set the username for the new user as the email?
If so, you can use the &usernameField=`email` property to do that.
Thanks. This works very fine on our system
Here is my snippet call and form:
[[!Register? &usergroupsField=`saver,lender,developer` &submitVar=`registerbtn` &activationResourceId=`11` &activationEmailTpl=`myActivationEmailTpl` &activationEmailSubject=`Thanks for Registering!` &submittedResourceId=`10` &customValidators=`customvalidators`; &validate=`nospam:blank, username:required:minLength=^6^, password:required:minLength=^6^, password_confirm:password_confirm=^password^, fullname:required, email:required:email` &placeholderPrefix=`reg.` ]]
