Description

Take Username internally (even if Realname displayed in the To field for users) in the intratiki messaging feature

intratiki messaging displays Realname (when the pref. is selected to do so), but Tiki needs to somehow convert that string back into the username internally in Tiki, since the user sees the user's Realname in the "To" field, but Tiki expects usernames to know who to send the message to.


Update: Pending to fix: when you reply to a previous message, you still get the usernames added at the "To" field, instead of the realnames. Therefore, when replying, you get the message that no valid user was there to reply to, since Tiki, in current revisions, and with that configuration, expects the realnames in the "To" field.

Solution

first part fixed already, afaik. Maybe jonnyb did while fixing the other related feature requests related to realname? 😊

The only pending thing is to display the Realname and no the login (which can be a private ID in LDAP scenarios, etc) in the message shown to the sender after the message has been sent to the other user.
Ok, fixed myself in r58252 in 15.x.


pending second part. see above.
