Hi, DNN by default sets requiresUniqueEmail= false. We went like with this unknowingly now there are duplicate accounts using same email address. Is there any way in dnn to enable this constraint and stop creating duplicate accounts with same email? When I enable the constraint requiresUniqueEmail= true, if a user tries to login, he will be getting the screen saying invalid email. I tried to delete the duplicate accounts, but with dnn 5 it is only soft delete, and when I login with a single final account it still shows invalid email. I tried to message the email of the duplicate accounts in Aspnet_membership and Users table to update to append the username to the email. Now, when I login, I still see the same error. Is there any way in dnn to enable this constraint and stop creating duplicate accounts with same email?

I believe that in order to use this properly you will need to first remove all the duplicate accounts with a hard delete. I've got a blog post on how to do this, that was generated by an inquiry like yours
