On https://fe.disroot.org, it is mentionned that you can log in with username or email, but email doesn't work.

That will be interesting to solve. We could solve it in two ways:
In frontend which could be done and I am capable to do it right (upstream it and add to options etc). Or tweak LDAP authenticator to allow mail attribute lookup.

Although frontend solution seems easier to fix from my standpoint. LDAP solution is I think proper way to do about it. I will rather look into that and perhaps be able to add/fix other things to allow aliases for example.

I'd go for the LDAP solution too, especially as lot of people messed up between email ond username (like on user.disroot.org, they always enter username@disroot.org instead of username)

@muppeth I'm re-reading your answer: when you write about tweak LDAP authenticator to allow mail attribute lookup you mean on our ldap or on akkoma LDAP plugin?

We could just do the frontend fix. At least temporarily till it can be definitely solved on LDAP.

I've checked for a temporary fix but it requires changing header.login.username.placeholder on all languages files, which isn't the best solution (we just change the displaying test to username only), and would be overwritten when we update the software. Unless @muppeth has a better solution.

@muppeth could this issue be related to the one we also have with nextcloud: there also, we can not log in with email, it has to be username, whereas it is said that we can log in with both.

Do we still keep it open or close it since there was no reply on feature request so far?

I would keep it as a placeholder.

Sorry to be a little off-topic, but is the Nextcloud log in issue (using the email address) tracked in another issue? If so, I couldn't find it.
I am asking because I wanted to report if few times (I find it quite annoying) and accidentally find this reference here.
