Hello!
It is either not implemented in OF or (way more likely!) I am too dumb to find it?
How does an Admin rename an existing account without touching anything else. I guess there are also people getting married in Portland, so what is the correct procedure when she returns to the office?

Hi Starry,
As far as I know, this is not possible on the admin console. You have to delete the account and then create a new one. Unfortunately, deleting accounts has a whole series of bugs with not cleaning out the database

You can change Name. You can’t change username. So you have to create a new account in that case. I hate them changing their names, 90% of our personnel here - women, doh…
Hello!
Thanks for the info. Although not really positive it somehow confirms my findings. And while I am at lamenting around:
Are software developers really humans???
I mean, in all honesty why do software geeks always ignore the reality.
The earth is not flat, hard discs break and people do change their names, fact, fact fact!!! 
This is no personal offense to Jive or this community in particular but more a general offense to anyone claming to do SOCIAL software/networking but completely ignoring the SOCIAL part of it.
Enough said, the current situation is a shame IMHO!
P.S. I also found some very weired behaviour reg. deleting and reentring user- and/or group- and /or room names. The cleanup code seems to be incomplete.

This is somewhat similar to the Roster in spark lost after AD ID renaming??? discussion. Openfire has a User Service plugin. Can somebody please use that service to create a GUI to update (rename) usernames? That would be cool.
