In CRED front end form for registering users I need to use input from field 'user_email' both for email and user login. Is that possible or do I need to develop whole register page myself? It would not be a problem, but i'd like to save time.

Hello. Thank you for contacting the Toolset support.

Yes - I think this is possible.

I think you should just hide the field 'user_login' from your user form and use CRED API hook 'cred_before_save_data' and assign your email field value to 'user_login' field.
