When the config setting useEmailAsUsername is set, I would expect updating a users' email address to also update the username field when saving the element. However, this does not occur unless you manually call php craft utils/update-usernames.

Should the username be updated when a users' email address is updated?

Is there a method to trigger this for the current user via a plugin or do I just need to update username alongside email?

Version: 3.5.15.1

Edit: This also prevents registration of a new user with the previous email address but does not indicate what the problem is clearly.

  • This feels like half-bug/half-feature request to me as I could see where people might want both behaviors. Can you make an issue for it? github.com/craftcms/cms/issues Going to go ahead and vote to close this here.

  • Thanks @BradBell, will do. As I was writing it I thought it might be more of a GitHub issue. Commented Feb 11, 2021 at 1:09
