[Feature Request] Username case insensitive

Closed this issue · 2 comments

Just want the username to be case insensitive so that User and user would both work. Its a small thing, but it gets annoying since mobile tends to automatically capitalize things.

The username for non-root users are already case-insensitive by default. You can try this on the demo site by logging in with username tEsT and password 1234 and it will still log you right in.

For root users on the other hand, we can't do case-insensitive because the hash will not match otherwise. In our documentation, we encourage users to set up a secondary account and mark the second account as an Admin user even if they are the only user in the system. see here

The username for root users will remain case-sensitive because we hash both username and password of the root user to ensure highest level of security, see Technical Docs

Thank you for the detailed write up and links. I appreciate the thought put into it the docs.
