Email instead of Username
On the new user registration page I would like to only provide the user with and email field, along with a password field.

I would like to set the new users username to the entered email address.

Is there a way to do this?

Thanks

RE:Email instead of Username
Hello,

You can use CustomRegistrationForm web part and set 'SiteManager -> System tables -> User -> Alternative forms -> Fields -> UserName -> Display attribute in the editing form' checkbox to false (un-checked). This should ensure the 'UserName' field won't be displayed and the entered e-mail will be stored in this field automatically instead.

Best Regards,

Martin Dobsicek
