users require e-mail adress even though "Require user email" is disabled #963
Comments
The require email button is not for that. The email field in the profile has to be something. The reason why their usernames get copied is because of that. That is whats used for local logins. That field cannot be empty |
Okay, so the copied username is a placeholder for the login then if it's a Jellyfin and not a local user, if I understood that correctly? |
Each user has two login types. Authentication through jellyfin and jellyseerr. Jellyfin authentication is handled by jellyfin. Jellyseerr login form has jellyseerr handling the authentication using the email & password. The problem we face when it comesnto jellyfin is, none or the users have an email as jellyfin doesn't use it. So we use usernames as emails. Now the issue comes when you want to use smtp, ofc these usernames aren't actually emails right? That's what the require emails button checkbox is for. Now the other issue was this was causing a lot of users to get confused by what that field really does (like this issue) so we have now removed the display of that field on a users perspective and only handle it server wide (#900) So now in a user's perspective, that field will be empty if it's not an email that was provided but it will still be using the username just not displayed to save confusion. |
Just closing the issue as this issue is not really relevant anymore as described above ^ |
Ah, I see, thank you for explaining this. I just wanted to close it, thank you. |
Description
I imported my users directly from Jellyfin via the Users menu, which worked perfectly, but every user has their username automatically filled as e-mail address in their user settings. I do not know if this has been like this since importing (more than a year ago), but I cannot delete those user names from the e-mail field without jellyseerr complaining
Email required even though the setting Require user email (Settings->Notifications->Email) is disabled and not checked.
My only options at this point are:
