Displaying Login name in Application

Hi, all my applicaitons currently show the login of the user in the top right corner of the screen next to the logout link. Is there any way to customise this so I can show the actual name of the user stored in the database instead of their login name?Perhaps along with the date of their last login?
Thanks
Andrew

Hi,
Create application item and compute value you like use. Then go edit your page template and replace substitution &APP_USER.or#WELCOME_USER# with your application item.

  • Login Names always display

    Hello!I'm unsure if this is an issue or a feature. Skype shows login names instead of display names unless I have them added. As an example, supposing a user has the login name example000, and the display name The Best Example, it defaults to showing example000. To get it to display The Best Example, I must add the user to my contacts. I am in a couple group chats and haven't added everyone. It seems everyone else defaults to seeing display names. Is there some setting I'm missing, since I went through Options and failed to find a solution myself? I'd prefer to default to seeing display names instead of login names - it's hard to keep track of who's who. I did think it was an issue with my settings and reset everything, but it still continues to show login names. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling Skype too, but the issue remains. Can someone help me? Thanks!

    Hi Ashok,
    I wouldn't change the users logon name, I would instead create an application item which is set to the user's freindly name on login.
    This could be displayed as a navigation bar entry, but as navigation bar entries are by definition navigation links, this could get confusing if it doesn't actually link to anything. it would probably be better if you changed the template to display the application item next to the navigation bar entries.

  • 'Incorrect Login Name' error after migrating application in planning

    Hi,
    We are doing a migration to Planning 9.2.1 from a pre-system 9 version (3.5), using sql server 2000 as repository
    System 9 is installed in a fresh new server, and we are copying the applications/repositories from the old server.
    The admin user is the same in old installation and in new one.
    At the moment, all products are installed in the same server
    We have already sucessfully migrated the essbase applications, including substitution variables and users
    We had a problem creating a new application in planning, reading these forums we added External Authentication to Shared Services, and created application succesfully.
    We created the UDL for old database in SQL server and new essbase. Test connection was succesfull
    Created DSN based on UDL, test connection was succesfull
    We inserted application to migrate into PLN database, table HSX_DATASOURCES
    Saved SID for admin user (5001)
    Opened Desktop Planning, and opened the aplication.
    We got the 'upgrade application' message, and we upgraded it. No errors reported.
    We replaced the SID with the previously saved one. Actually, they are the same SID
    Now, when we try to open the migrated application in Desktop Planning, we get a 'Failled to Open application: M_09 Incorrect login name'
    We have already verified that the admin user id dbowner of the database in sql server 2000
    The event log only says the following
    Error*16*HypAdmin*4/15/2009 11:54:12 AM*CHspSession.cpp*Line 119*Incorrect login name*
    Any help will be appreciated!
    P.S. please excuse my writing skills, I am not a native english speaker.
    Edited by: hectorsosar on 15/04/2009 10:44 AM

    Please nevermind my previous post. I didn't read carefully enough, that the SID to save and copy was from the newly created applciation, not from old app. Now everything worls ok.
    Thanks, and regards,
    Hector

  • Displaying the name of iPhoto library

    I have a large number of different iPhoto libraries, and was wondering if there was some way to display the name of the Library in use. I have given them all different names, and can usually tell which one I am in, but not always.
    iPhoto insists on calling each one "Library" in the information pane. I've looked through the responses to this question in the iPhoto 5 section (i.e. "can't do it") but, now that iPhoto offers multiple library support, you'd think this would be addressed.
    Th causes of my problem are twofold: 1) I often duplicate libraries and then split them by deleting different film rolls from each and 2) I'm getting old, and my memory is not what it once was, so I tend to forget which of the two libraries I've opened and which files should be deleted.
    Any suggestions?

    luba:
    Yes if you use iPhoto Library Manager to manage your multiple libraries as you can see here. iPLM adds the library title to the top of iPhoto's window when you go thru iPLM. It will also let you copy albums or rolls between libraries and keep the keywords and comments like this.
    I have my workflow setup to always go thru iPLM so I always know exactly which library I'm opening. My memory isn't good enough to remember the last one I had opened.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've written an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

  • One login for multiple applications

    Hi,
    I was using HTMLDB 1.6 and followed the following guidlines: one login multiple applications for one login to multiple applications. Basically I set the cookie name the same for both applications. It worked.
    Now I've upgraded to HTMLDB 2.0 and this doesn't work anymore. I need to login to each application. Any way around this?
    Thanks,

    I have an SQL report region that includes this column:
    decode((select count(*) from gr_agency_add f, gr_emp_add a where a.empid = g.userid and a.aid = f.aid and a.add_type = g.address_option), 0, '', '<a href="f?p=&APP_ID.:9:' || :APP_SESSION || '::::P9_GRID:' || g.GRID || ' target="_blank">') ||decode(trunc(length(g.topic)/30), 0 , g.topic || '</a>', substr(g.TOPIC,1,30)||'..') "Topic",
    With the
    target="_blank"
    of course I am opening page 9 in a new window. I never had a problem with this but today, in a demo to some executives, the new window apparently came up with the login page and not page 9. Would this be due to a browser setting? Unfortunately, I don't have much info about the laptop they were using.
    The demo was still a success!

  • Need to remove Authentication Source Category from login name

    We are synchronizing with an LDAP and need the loginname to NOT include the auth source category, but cannot find an option to do this. The LDAP is called passport. After synch the user's login name is passport\jtokeeffe. We have a script to remove the passport prefix but every time we run the LDAP job to only bring in NEW users, it resets all the existing user's loginnames. The problem is, the username that is available in the Request object from the JSR168 container has "passport\jtokeeffe" as the username. Our portlets interact with many different databases and other applications that we are passing user login info to, so we would have to change tons of code to strip of the prepended "passport\". Do we have any other option???

    One option would be to write a simple PWS that is run after the AWS that sets a user property called, say, "shortlogin". Then you can pass that property to your remote tier and use it in your portlets. Unless you are sending credentials to your portlets via Basic Auth. Are you?

  • How do I get character viewer to display the names of the radicals in Japanese, as they were until Lion

    In Leopard, Character Viewer displayed the names of the radicals of Japanese characters in Japanese.
    Now I have Lion, the radicals all have English names which are totally different and impossible to search phonetically. I can't find a way to choose the language of the Character Viewer. Do I have to set the whole iMac to use Japanese as its basic language? That would be a pain for everything else.
    Thanks for looking.

    If you put Japanese at the top of the Langauge tab list, but do not logout/login, then only newly opened apps will appear in Japanese.  That way you can get only Character Viewer in Japanese.   Maybe this will also work
    http://www.tj-hd.co.uk/en-gb/languageswitcher/
    Another approach would be to open the Character Viewer app and modify its .lproj folders.
    If you still have a copy of Leopard, you may be able to transplant its Character Viewer app to Lion and use it as an independent app.

  • Windows Login Name and Password

    Hi,
    I am developing an application, which requires the windows login name for greeting and password for validating and granting privileges.
    Could someone please give me the pseudo code for getting the windows login name and password.
    Thanks,
    Mitra.

    I'll try to validate some other parameter instead of
    password. The password will be stored but it will be
    encrypted.Bad Thing (TM). Never store passwords.
    When we are able to get the UserName using
    JavaScript, why can't we get it using Java.I told you how to get it. And what does Javascript have to do with anything? Just because you can drive through a very narrow alley with your bicycle, you should be able to do the same with a truck? Javascript and Java are not related in any way.

  • PowerShell Script Get the User's Active Directory Fully Qualified Login Name for Specific Locked Out Accounts

    I have a script which displays locked out accounts. It works great.
    I'd like to display the fully qualified Active Directory Login Name instead of the LastName, First Name:
    Example: Davis, Susan
    Want instead: Domain\Susan.Davis
    I'd also like to include an additional filter to look for only Domain\Susan.Davis OR Domain\Robin.Givens
    Here is my script:
    $objDomain = New-Object System.DirectoryServices.DirectoryEntry
    $objSearcher = New-Object System.DirectoryServices.DirectorySearcher
    $objSearcher.SearchRoot = $objDomain
    $objSearcher.PageSize = 1000
    $objSearcher.Filter = "(&(objectClass=User)(lockoutTime>=1))"
    $colProplist = "name","samaccountname"
    foreach ($i in $colPropList){$objSearcher.PropertiesToLoad.Add($i) | out-null}
    $colResults = $objSearcher.FindAll()
    foreach ($objResult in $colResults) {
    $domainname = $objDomain.name
    $samaccountname = $objResult.Properties.samaccountname

    $objResult.Properties.name

    Sorry, I should have mentioned that the cmdlets I'm using are part of the Active Directory module. You'll need to install the RSAT (Win7+) to use them.
    If you'd rather stick with your DirectorySearcher methods instead of moving to the AD module, you can adjust your output by using something like this instead:
    if(($user.UserFlags.Value -band $ADS_UF_LOCKOUT) -eq $ADS_UF_LOCKOUT) {
    "$domainname\$($objResult.Properties.samaccountname)"
    $domainname might not be what you're expecting, just FYI.
    As for filtering, you can add to the if statement and check for your known usernames only.
