Add username to PASSWORD_RESET_CONFIRM

Describe the problem you would like to solve
If anyone has forgotten their username, they cannot find out.

Describe the solution you’d like
The username could be sent in the PASSWORD_RESET_CONFIRM email

Who is asking for this feature?
Authors that has forgotten their login username

Additional information
I have tried to add {$username} to the email template, but that did not work.

Hi @eddoff,

Starting with OJS/OMP/OPS 3.4.0-4, it’s possible to log in via email address instead of username. I think this should make it unnecessary to include the username in the password reset email.

See for details:

Ok, we are using 3.3 currently. Then an upgrade will solve the issue :slight_smile:
Thank you!
