Change "barcode" at login to "barcode or username"
When logging in to a patron's account, they might not realize they can use their barcode or username, since it only says barcode. I log in with my username all the time. We would like to change the wording from barcode to "barcode or username" so it's clear that patrons have the option to use both.
Hi Margaret,
You can change this easily today in your Vega catalog by going to the Staff Admin and using the Localization settings to edit your English strings file.
Search for 'loginFormBarcode' and edit this string to read, "Username or Barcode" and save. Vega will immediately display this string instead in the login prompt.
Let me know if you have any other questions!
Best Regards,
Samantha Cunning

Can you confirm if this is an option also available to Polaris users? Where is the username stored? We have lots of patrons who would like to login with a username instead of barcode, but the option doesn't seem to exist.
