Hi.

This question may be sounds strange.

In the Login form a user must insert Username and Password. May I change the Password with his/her Email?

Thank you.

Yes, you can change the password.

Pablo, thank you.

Please, can you sent to me some general instructions?

1. As I suppose, I cannot change the Login form before convert it to form.

2. So, I must make changes in the <HTML> Login. Is it correct?

3. Or I must double click on the Login in order to make some changes in the Form I see (General, Hidden Fields, Style etc...)?

If your answer to (2) is YES, I must change the word "password" to the word "email"?

1. You can change the properties of the form to control the behavior built-in functionality.
2. Yes, if you want to add features that are not available.
3. That depends on what kind of changes.

What exactly are you trying to do?
Please try to be more specific.

Thank you, Pablo.

I will try to describe what I wish to do.

1. I have a Signup page.
2. The user, after Signup, may Login to enter to Flexible Services page.
3. In this page there two services that the user can choose:
a. To send to me his/her text from his mobile phone.
b. To enter to the collaborative writing service.
4. In order to enter to (a) or (b), he/she must validate his/her username and email (these that he used in Signup).
5. So, I wish to confirm that he has already a username and mainly an email. I want to confirm the email because the communication with user is based on email exchanges.

If you want to confirm the email address (just like the password) then you will need to add an extra field and modify the script.
To be able to do this you will have to convert the signup form to a standard form.

to add an extra field

1. You mean that I must add a new Editbox with name "email"?
modify the script
.
2. I think that here begins the difficulty. You mean that I make changes in the code I see in the<HTML> Login?
To be able to do this you will have to convert the signup form to a standard form.
3. You mean that I must convert the signup to form?

1. That is what you are asking, right?
2. Correct
3. If you want to change the appearance and behavior of signup form then you need to convert it to a standard form.

Please understand that there cannot be a standard solution for everything you can think of. That is why the ability to 'convert to form' is available so you can customize the code.

Pablo, thank for your patience!

My questions sound absolute, but this due to my ignorance!

I will try some changes in the code, and I will send to you the results.

Thank you again, Pablo.

Hi again.

I could not find any answer to the question.

The question is:

How the user will insert in Login form username and email instead of username and password?

I apologize for asking the same question again.

There is no standard solution for this, you will have to modify the signup form and script to implement this functionality.
