UNIQUE MEMBER USERNAMES
By default, usernames are unique only within an individual site. Prior to NATS version 4.0.69.1, there were two configuration settings that could affect username uniqueness.
- UNIQUE_USERNAMES Require usernames on the join form to be unique across all sites. If there is a match, the user must pick a new username.
- XSELL_UNIQUE_USERNAMES Requires cross sale usernames to be unique across all sites. If there is a match, the new xsell username is automatically renamed.
On NATS version 4.0.69 and greater, these variables have been replaced with a new variable --UNIQUE_MEMBER_NAMES-- with 9 options . The first four of these options replicate existing functionality from older versions:
- only unique within site -- this is the default setting.
- unique for joins and xsells -- this replaces selecting both UNIQUE_USERNAMES and XSELL_UNIQUE_USERNAMES
- unique for xsells -- this replaces selecting only XSELL_UNIQUE_USERNAMES
- unique for joins -- this replaces selecting only UNIQUE_USERNAMES
The second five options allow for new functionality -- letting usernames be unique across sites, but allowing exceptions if the email is also a match
- unique for xsells and unique for joins(unless emails match) -- Usernames for xsells must be unique across sites as with XSELL_UNIQUE_USERNAMES. Usernames on the join form must be unique as with UNIQUE_USERNAMES, but allowing an exception if both the username and email match the existing member.
- unique for joins (unless emails match) -- Usernames for xsells do not need to be unique across all sites. Usernames on the join form must be unique as with UNIQUE_USERNAMES, but allowing an exception if both the username and email match the existing member.
- unique for xsells(unless emails match) and unique for joins -- Usernames for xsells must be unique across sites as with XSELL_UNIQUE_USERNAMES, but allowing an exception if both the username and email match the existing member. Usernames on the join form must be unique as with UNIQUE_USERNAMES.
- unique for xsells(unless emails match) -- Usernames for xsells must be unique across sites as with XSELL_UNIQUE_USERNAMES, but allowing an exception if both the username and email match the existing member.
- unique for xsells(unless emails match) and unique for joins(unless emails match) -- Usernames for xsells must be unique across sites as with XSELL_UNIQUE_USERNAMES, but allowing an exception if both the username and email match the existing member. Usernames on the join form must be unique as with UNIQUE_USERNAMES, but allowing an exception if both the username and email match the existing member.
