Login with username AND nickname in one field

[Herbert Fromme]

The plugin works wonderful. Great work in development.

However, I would like to hire something that I have not managed yet. Maybe I can get a solution for my problem here.

I would like to have a login in the shortcode [user-meta-login], where the user can login with his username, his e-mail address AND his nickname.
In the settings of the plugin, I have found only the possibility that the user can login with his e-mail address or his username or both.

Many e-mail addresses are too long to login, so some people like to create a short loginname as nickname that has fewer letters but is different than the username. This leads to a better user experience, which is why I would like to have implemented it.

Is there a way to do it this way? Does a code exist which we can deposit in the template?
Have already sent two messages via the contact form, but have not yet received a response. Hope the forum gives me an answer. 🙂

Best regards
Dominik

Hello Herbert,

There is no direct way to do this. But with the help of authenticate function or authenticate filter hook you can achieve your target. These may help your cause.
