Hello guys,
I want to customzie osticket so my users can reset their passwords over the web browser.
For that I need the LDAP Accountname (DB: ost_user_acount.username) which is also found in the user class (var_dump showed me that).
Now I have no clue how to get the "username" value since the user class is nested like hell :/
I think for an php expert this is done in a few seconds lol
Can someone help me please?
Thanks in advance!
osTicket does not have an LDAP account name. osTicket does not talk to LDAP.
You can install the Authentication::LDAP and Active Directory plugin which lets your users authenticate with LDAP/AD. But it does not add a LDAP Accountname to the software. It also will not update a password to LDAP/AD [Which is considered dangerous].
You are correct that the username is in the ost_user_account table. To get the information query the table for the username of the user id.
Since the username is stored in class.user.php (make a var_dump() on the user-class and you will see) why would I again query the table?
I just can't read the key from the user class. I need something like $user["username"] or array_column($user, "username"); but this does not work.
I did it now with a query, but I think thats not a good solution since the username is already stored in the users class and additional querys impair the performance.
Oh I see what your saying.
maybe
function getUsername();?
or $user->getUsername()?
or $vars['username']?
I would try the last one first.
