In MVC5 Identity 2 SignInManager.PasswordSignInAsync take user name for login.
var result = await SignInManager.PasswordSignInAsync(model.Email, model.Password, model.RememberMe, shouldLockout: false);
but my user name and email are not same. but i want to email address for login.So how can i do that? Thanks
Get user from UserManager by email.
var user = UserManager.FindByEmail(email);
Then use SignInManager's PasswordSignInAsync with user's Username
var result = await SignInManager
.PasswordSignInAsync(user.UserName,password,isPersistent,shouldLockout);
Or inside your SignInManager add this method (ASP.NET Identity discussion)
public async Task<SignInStatus> PasswordEmailSignInAsync(string email, string password, bool isPersistent, bool shouldLockout)
{
var user = UserManager.FindByEmail(email);
return await PasswordSignInAsync(user.UserName,password,isPersistent,shouldLockout);
}
Then use it same as PasswordSignInAsync but with user email instead of usermane.
