Magento ver. 1.7.0.2 September 10, 2012Hello from Germany nice extension but it did not work together with Market Ready Germany.

Regards Christian August 29, 2012Hello Sir, Thanks a lot for your quick help. Sir, my requirement is I want to add custom field Mobile Number in Registration, Login and Billing Pages. So I installed your extension and i renamed Username label to Mobile Number. for validation I set 1)Input Validation : Digits only 2)max no. : 11 3)min no. :10 Upto this everything is fine but sir problem is validation text displaying like: "Username" length must be equal or greater than 10 characters. But instead of Username I want to show "Mobile Number" length must be equal or greater than 10 Digits. Actually i want to show everywhere "Mobile Number" instead of "Username" in Backend and also in Frontend. Please sir i need your kind help...Waiting for your reply.. August 7, 2012hello sir, Thanks a lot for your extension...it is great.. I installed ur extension..but i want to accept mobile number instead of Username so i change label from Username to Mobile number... I m facing problem in validation because validation errors still showing Username label i want change these errors as per my requirement. Where i will find it or how i can do this...please help me in this regard. August 7, 2012So far it works in 1.7..... Just can't edit the min length as the admin menu does not work. Any help would be great as I only want 4 char long July 11, 2012I installed this extension on Magento 1.6.2. I imported my customers successfully with all usernames, and a lot of user use their email as username. However, when I tried to check out, at Billing Address section, there is a red *required field above continue, when I press continue, there is a window pop up, "Username is invalid! Only letters, digits and '_-' values are accepted." Please let me know how I can fix this. Thanks. July 4, 2012Hi, Now that I have left a number of posts I thought I would actually write a review. I was desperate for username integration in magento because I integrate my store heavily with Joomla, which is username based. I came across diglin username and am very happy with the way it seemlessely integrates into Magento as if it was part of core. The developer has done a stellar job and must be commended for his efforts especially when offering such a great extension free of charge. It's quite rare to find. Also for those of you that would like to add the username variable to new account emails use {{var customer.username}} when adding a new transaction email template. June 3, 2012Cool! Works perfectly fine. May 5, 2012- Q&A
