 * Probably I misunderstood the purpose of the plugin. I need something to manage
   the access to my site, and I changed (in the settings) to login
    -  email only
 *  What I wanted is that, after accessing the (free) home page, the user is forced
   to enter email and password to proceed. What happened is that the wp-admin login
   was affected, and I could not any longer enter via wp-login with my regular username(
   not email) and pwd. In my opinion, this is not correct: the administrator wp-
   login should NOT be affected by the plugin settings. I was forced to define another
   wp-admin user to access the dashboard and correct the issue.

 * Sorry to hear you has issues. Yes, currently the settings apply to all users 
   but I’ll note your request to allow admins to login with both.
