Allow customised authorUsername in the form

[max8hine]

Current behaviour:

I believe the plugin cant does not change authorUsername in the front-end.

e.g

<input type="hidden" name="authorUsername" :value="user@example.com" />

and authorUsername is defined in plugin in settings.

Desire behaviour:

the guest-entries/save action can take below value

<input type="hidden" name="authorId" :value="userId" />

Guest Entries doesn’t support passing a custom authorUsername value – that’s just something it includes in the response info when submitting over Ajax. That said, if you really want to add support for the form passing its own authorUsername param, you could make that happen by writing a module that hooks into the beforeSaveEntry event.
