Want to have Users login with Username not email address

[mgainey28]

I am building an educational app, where the teacher will need to register the child but the child will use the username that the teacher creates. I need to be able to register multiple users under the same email address but different username and passwords. Is this possible in the bubble site builder?

Users in a Bubble app are unique via a single email address. You technically cannot create multiple Users under 1 address, but you can fake it by creating a seperate Student type with text fields for username and password…obvious security risks involved here.

A similar situation was brought up below with a potential approach:

Username Login instead of (and in addition to) Email based Users

We are building an App for Parents and Children. Parents will have the standard Email login, but we also want Children to be able to Login to their part of the App, and for this to be controlled by the parents. So they would need a separate “Username” to login, and a password that is set and managed by the parent. Has anyone done anything similar ? I am worried about storing the Child’s password on the database in “clear”.

Yes, you either need to -

1. use the Bubble user functionality and create dummy usernames that then translate to an email address. Password reset is then an issue without a real email address.

2. Built your own user/password system as outlined above, encrypting using a service like Dovecot if you think you need extra security.
