To a first sapproximation, no, you can't do that. It would take some real work. but you should be able to localize most of place where it is displayed with little RT modifications (I don't have an RT tree here too look at, but it should require minor change to some Mason components (maybe only Elements/ShowUser...)). ___ http://lists.bestpractical.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/rt-users Community help: http://wiki.bestpractical.com Commercial support: sa...@bestpractical.com Discover RT's hidden secrets with RT Essentials from O'Reilly Media.

Re: [rt-users] rename Nobody ?
Jo Rhett Jesse List, Couldn't you just run an SQL on the DataBase and change the Name field on the USER table for ID = 10 to be whatever you want? Unless RT has a lot of hard-coded logic looking for the literal Nobody instead of the Id, wouldn't that work?

RT doesn't have a _lot_ of hardcoded logic depending on Nobody, but it _is_ hardcoded as one of the two core users. The localization solution is by far the cleanest. ___ http://lists.bestpractical.com/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/rt-users Community help: http://wiki.bestpractical.com Commercial support: sa...@bestpractical.com Discover RT's hidden secrets with RT Essentials from O'Reilly Media.

[rt-users] rename Nobody ?
One of the managers here wants to rename the Nobody user to have a different name.Can this be done without a code change?
