Proxy connect does not distinguish using emails or UniqueID

LarryK

Hi,

I'm using 2.0.14 and the current Proxy connect. Manual install. My website is responding to the Vanilla SSO request with

UniqueID=1
Name=Larry K
Email=xx@mailaddress.com

It all works great. Vanilla auto-magically created the Larry K user.

Then, as a test, I logged out, then logged in as a different user on My website with the same first name, last initial. The SSO response to Vanilla is now

UniqueID=2
Name=Larry K
Email=yy@mailaddress.com

But now I'm logged in to Vanilla as the first user! It seems to be focusing on the Name field, not the UniqueID or email field to determine if the person is new or not.

Is this behavior as designed? Can two people share the same "Name" in Vanilla but have different emails (and be two different logins to Vanilla)?

Thanks.

Found the problem, patch:

Now if a second person with the name proposed user name is authenticated via SSO, Vanilla asks the person to choose a second user name. Works well.
