Hello,
this is the entry from principals.zcml created by mkzopeinstance (a bit
modified):
<principal
id="something.Florian"
title="Manager"
login="florian"
password_manager="Plain Text"
password="123"
/>
but can I set a id that does not contain a dot?
I ask because I display DC creator metadata on a page and something like
Florian just looks better than something.Florian.
Principal IDs should preferrably have dots in order to attempt to be
unique throughout the whole Zope instance, even if there is more than
one principal source around (and two principal sources could both have a
Florian principal, so they better be distinguishable).
The Principal ID isn't really something to show to the public. You want
to get a hold of the principal that's behind soemthing.Florian
(principal = getUtility(IAuthentication).getPrincipal(id)) and then
print its title (principal.title).
