Forgot password dialog showing "enter username" instead of email #595

Open kpitzen opened 6 years ago

kpitzen commented 6 years ago

When a user's login is set to email, the prompt in the 'forgot password' dialog prompts the user for a username instead of an email. This could cause confusion as the user has never created an actual username.

What exactly are you referring to that is doing that? The Cognito hosted UI?

Yes, that's correct.

Thank you for the suggestion! I agree that if you use the email as a username it would make sense to display that info on the hosted UI. I will bring it up within the team to discuss.

The placeholder should be customizable e.g. "Enter email or username"
