[SOLVED] Keep email and username synced

I have the username field set to no display on all pages (Registration, Profile, Edit), and fallback for username is set to email. Login is set to email only.

When a user changes their email (I am using CB Reconfirm Email), what's the best way to keep the username synced to the new email? I'm guessing an Auto Action, but I can't figure out the best trigger to use.

onAfterUpdateUser or onAfterUserUpdate? What's the difference? I don't see any triggers specific to CB Reconfirm Email.

Once triggered, then just set username =

You'll only want to change the username after they've confirmed the email change. So you'll need to act on the CB Reconfirm Email trigger as follows to do this.

Global
Triggers: reconfirm_onAfterConfirm
Type: Field
User: Automatic
Access: Everybody
Action
Field: username
Operator: Set
Value: [var2_to]

var1 is the user object (before change), var2 is the reconfirm object (e.g. so it contains to, from, etc.. regarding their reconfirmation), and var3 is the confirmation code. The above should set their username to the email they're changing to after they've completely confirmed the change.

Worked! I didn't see the reconfirm_ trigger at the bottom of the list. Yes, I couldn't figure out how to trigger after the confirmation. Thanks!

For anyone curious you can find up to date trigger list below (I've updated the tutorial).

It's only missing some in-development triggers in CB Activity, but once 4.0.0 is released will be sure to update it again. File paths, trigger name, and trigger variables are all included in the tutorial.
