Re: Is there a way to rename a user?
So the new one has review requests associated with it now? Otherwise, I'd say just delete the new one and update the old. If there are review requests (or reviews/comments/etc.) associated, we'll need to update them. That can be done through a script, but it'd need to be fine-tuned for what's associated with that user. If you hit delete on the new user, it'll give you a confirmation that will show all objects associated. Having that list would help draft such a script.

I didn't try that. But I just did and it tells me "User with this Username already exisits." Which makes sense, because it does. I guess what I am really trying to do is to merge these two accounts which belong to the same person. Alfred -- Want to help the Review Board project?

Re: Is there a way to rename a user?
You don't need to touch SQL. Just go into the Review Board admin UI, then click Users, find the username, and rename it there.

Re: Is there a way to rename a user?
Hi Alfred, An admin should be able to go into the database and just rename the username for that user.

Is there a way to rename a user?
We are using RB 1.6.6 and LDAP for authentication. We recently had a contractor become a permanent employee and because of this his userid changed. So he is in the database twice now, once with the old userid and once with the new one. I can't delete the old userid as it will delete all the objects and relate items associated with the userid. So, is there a way to rename a userid and have the all the existing objects owned by the old userid owned by the new userid? Alfred -- Want to help the Review Board project?
