I am adding AMember to an existing Invision forum that has many members. These members should be able to join with their existing information. AMember is checking the Invision database for usernames. Here is the issue I found ... When setting up a subscription for an existing user, if I put in the password FIRST, before the username, it will let me finish If I try to type in the username FIRST, before the password, this is the error I get. Username XXXXXXX has been taken by another user. Please select a different log-in name If that is your account, please go to your membership page to login into your subscription. The member also cannot access the membership page, my assumption here is because they are not set up in AMember yet. Anyone know how to fix this or if this is just how it works?
The simplest solution for this is to disable login checks from javascript. Remove this from login input in signup.html template: remoteUniqLogin: 'ajax.php' If this is not acceptable, contact us in helpdesk, I will check what can be done.
I do want it to check. We want the members to have their forum accounts tied to amember. I assume that if disable login checks that would not happen, is that correct? I do have a open ticke (Reference: HLC-42366-573) And thank you for the response
No not correct. Above mod will disable only javascript checks. Login still will be checked when usjer will submit form.
