Hi,
Is there an easy way to force the use of a users "real name", instead of their username in the history pages. The credit blocks seem to use the real name if it's set.
We'd like to hide usernames completely...
thanks Andrew
Why don't you just implement a convention that people's usernames ARE there real names, e.g. "andrew.naismith" would be your userid.

Nope, won't work for us as we use our organisation's LDAP for authentication, changing usernames is not an option unfortunately.
