No Login by Email Address Plugin
Removes the ability to login using the email address instead of the username.
WordPress 4.5 added the ability to login using the registered user’s email address in place of the username. When this plugin is active, the ability to login using the email address in place of the username is removed, and the label of the input field is changed to reflect this.
Installation
- Upload the plugin folder to the ‘/wp-content/plugins/’ directory
- Activate the plugin through the ‘Plugins’ menu in WordPress
