Superticket: #1343

Creation of accounts from OpenID causes large number of problems:

• No guarantee of other profile info
• Poor username (just from openid)

We therefore will:

1. Require creation of user account via register (no auto-creation of accounts via openid)
   • sidebar of register page should point to login page rather than openid signin

2. Permit association of an openid with an account ...
   • How: paste in your openid url (requires change to edit form to have this)
     • won't work for google with their weird openid urls
   • [future] Nicer way is to have login via openid while logged in (which association then happening in background)

3. Migration (for 1+2):
   • (?) Generate decent usernames for all existing accounts
   • As this is nontrivial suggest instead we allow editing of usernames (by account owner and sysadmins). This is useful in its own right and is a reasonable 80/20 solution.
     • This does present the problem of re-associating commits with the new username. Best solution to this would be to switch revisions to point to userid rather than username. See #1534

4. [optional] Change display_name to always be username
   • Change My Account to Username at top right of all pages (once we know usernames are short ...)
     • could do this straight away by truncating long usernames (e.g. truncate at 20 chars ...)
     • Also should we lose the icon?

Super ticket: #1506

• Show member since
• Display email (in obfuscated form)
• List all owned datasets (in standard manner)
  • Will need change to logic layer to show datasets on user dict (this is useful for the API as well ...)
• (Re)move list of changes
  • Should have activity (once activity available)

WONTFIX:

• ?? Allow users to provide a home page, organization (requires migration)

if you want your ckan to reside not at ​http://yourhost.org/ but rather e.g. at ​http://yourhost.org/ckan/ you can use this hint ​http://wiki.pylonshq.com/display/pylonsdocs/Configuration+Files and set ckan.site_url accordingly in your .ini. However, there are some instances where internal links are created without the required prefix.
