When users install my browser it shows the plugin created by the name listed under my crossrider dev account. I'd like to change that to my company name but the site won't let me change the name. How can I change it to show my company name vs my first and last name? Thanks
Email support#crossrider.com from the email address currently associated with the account. In the email, provide:
Current Account Name: the name currently associated with the account
Extension ID(s): One or more IDs of extensions in the account
New Account Name: the desired name for the account

I have some issue with User Account Settings. (Drupal 8)
Normaly there is a possibility to change the content on every mail...but it's does not work.
If an user register to my website (from a front form) a different email is send than the one i configure here:
enter image description here
Someone ?
The Welcome (new user created by administrator) email template (as its label says) is for accounts created by admin, not for users who manually register on your site.
The email template your users are receiving is Welcome (awaiting approval) or Welcome (no approval required), depending on whether administrator approval is required or not.
For some reason GitHub always uses my personal name when I raise issues etc, I have a profile name set which is different but it never uses that.
To clarify - personal name is Joe Bloggs
I login as joebloggs
My profile name is joethedev
How do I get commits etc to be flagged as by joethedev not joebloggs??
How can you login as joebloggs when your profile name is joethedev. I usually login with my email and my profile name (username) is set via the Settings -> Account
We are using GitHub Enterprise 2.5.1.
In our company, when a user switches to a new role, a new AD account will be created for him, with a new set of permissions. e.g. my current account is "huj" as a developer with email address "Jirong_Hu#otpp.com, if I become a BA, then:
The old account "huj" will be marked as "OIM Deletion" in AD.
A new account called "huj2" will be created for me, with the same old email address, Jirong_Hu#otpp.com.
My questions are:
As account is automatically created upon login, if I login to GitHub with the new account "huj2", I got this error: Unable to create the user because email Jirong_Hu#otpp.com is already taken and emails is invalid.
How can I create the new account "huj2" in GitHub, with the same old email address.
What's the consequence of doing the above?
I know this is an old post but it still shows at the top on a Google search on this subject.
Some email providers support using special characters to use multiple email addresses that map to a single account.
For example, if you use Gmail and your email address is myemail#gmail.com and you already have an account on GitHub with that email you can create a new GitHub account using myemail+1#gmail.com
The simple answer is NO.
You can't create more than 1 ID in GitHub by the same email, but you can do it by using multiple email IDs.
If you try to do it, GitHub will show an error - "email invalid or already taken", so delete the present account or make it with a new email id .
There are two ways to resolve this issue:
If the existing user has no activity, then delete this existing account.
Otherwise change his email to something else, then when the new user logs in, a new account will be created.
I have an existing website in MVC4.
Now I am looking forward to upgrade it to MVC5.
I wanna use External Authentication, however, what I want is that when use select any of the External Login option (Except Twitter, I am not going to use it), all I want is to get his/her Name and email address.
I don't wanna store anything in the database with the username or other details associated.
I just need to grab the Name and email address and if it matches with existing email, user will be logged in, otherwise, new account will be created.
It will be great if anyone can help me with this with small tutorial, to read Name, email and other extra details from the user, instead of adding it to the database.
I have a project where I am using Selenium to test the Facebook auth. I created a Facebook app, created a test user inside this app and created some tests using Facebook login. Until now, it was working. But during the last two weeks something changed in Facebook and my tests are failing. It is due to interface changes in permissions dialog (I am targeting the button by his id). The second problem is that I don't get the email address from Facebook test user but a proxy email which is longer than 75 characters (my db field length is hardcoded in framework I am using).
If I log in as a regular user, it is working correctly and I get this permission box:
But when I log in as the test user I created (via 'switch to' in app's developer roles), I get this box:
I tested it ~2 weeks ago and this was yet working. Today it is changed. So my questions:
How to get back the old permissions box for test users?
How can I get the real email address and not the proxy?
Thanks!
I experienced the same problem with the Auth Dialog. I tried it with some old and new apps with various settings including March/Apr. 2013 Breaking Changes enabled/disabled, but it didn't help.
However, I guess I can help you with the email problem. When you login as a test user and go to account settings page, you will see the test user's primary email addres. By default this should be a really long one like the image I attached.
Facebook Platform returns this primary email address. If you pass the Auth Dialog with your test user account and see the privacy setting page, you will find the default primary email address is shared with the app. You have to provide a new email address for the test user and set the new one as primary email address via account setting page.
Why is the Login Dialog different with a test user?
With your test user, you can see the future of login dialogs. In fact, this isn't "not working" but this is an update which was unveiled on December 2012. Let me quote:
Our Login dialogs have undergone a redesign to make it easier to
understand permissions that apps request. We've simplified
presentation and have also updated our language for greater clarity.
“Basic info” has been renamed to “public profile and friend list,” to
reflect what what is being shared. Apps accessing your public profile
get your name, profile picture, age range, gender, language, country
and other public information.

The reason why you don't meet this update with a regular user, is that Facebook doesn't use to update everyone at the same time. They partially launch updates depending on the country, the type of account or some other parameters I ignore.
Example of a partial update (unified_message FQL table) dedicated to developer accounts:
We are providing early access to this API for registered developer
accounts only until the new messaging system is broadly available. You
should use the message table for production applications at the
current time.
In our case, we now know that test users can access to the update, but it is also said:
We have already launched many of these improvements as part of our
iOS6 integration and are now rolling them out more broadly.
About proxy emails
In fact, proxy emails are a way for any users to keep their real email anonymous. You have to consider proxy emails.
When joining an app, the user can choose between a real email and a proxy email:
Other thing you need to expect are users who didn't validate their account when connecting to your app, a case which is possible as described here and here.
Then, why do test users give back a proxy email? Because test users (being bots and having fake emails) didn't validate their emails.
You see that in at least 3 cases (and finally, test users are a good example), you need to handle these proxy emails. They are incidentally or accidentally met by developers and they can't be neglected. For your case, you can still try to disallow tests users who have a proxy email from accessing your app. But you should accept them and shouldn't force them to share their original e-mail addresses. A better solution is that you validate the test users emails:
Connect to the test user account that gives a proxy email
Add an email address (password needed here),
Go to the email mailbox and click on the validation link,
Set the new email address as primary,
The test user should now give his original email and not a proxy anymore!
