On my site, what is unique about each member their e-mail. They can
have the same member names, etc.
I really want that the BOLTid and the e-mail are the same, because the
BOLTid is used to identify members and to store information that is
coupled to them.
I could, of course, use another unique BOLTid. I can easily retrieve
the e-mail with {~id:email} and I can retrieve the ID with an e-mail
using a search, or perhaps keep a special list somewhere. While this
already takes some extra effort that is a bit clumsy, I have a bigger
problem: I need to store information coupled to certain e-mail
adresses of member that have not even registered yet! I could
automatically register when some information with that e-mail needs to
be stored... The registering only couples the BOLTid and e-mail. But
that gives me trouble when the person with the e-mail tries to
register: account already exists. (Of course, i can modify the
BOLTXregister to deal with that).
As you can see, lots of trouble.
All of this would be solved if the BOLTid and e-mail were simply the
same. All information just gets stored (on other pages than "login*"),
and when someone registers, a "[email protected]" is created with
the register-information, and the registrant has acces to all the
information he/she needs.
Unfortunately, boltwire does not allow @'s in the pagename (or it
converts them to "group"). And dots (.) delimit pages. How can I
escape this behavior for the login* pages? I have a custom BoltWire
application, so I can do anything. I tried altering the "$pageArray"
and removing the "@" shortcut - but I got into trouble with links,
since e-mail adresses in a link get automatically converted to a
"mailto:"; link.
Maybe I should replace the @ and . with something else? This way, e-
mail and ID are not the same, but easily converted into eachother...
Any suggestions, tips, help with this? Thanks a lot!
Cheers,
Mark
