New Dashboard DisplayName format in 7.0.0 #3724

Is it possible to not have the create user's name displayed in the Dashboard dropdown when listing available Dashboard's?

We have many non-technical users log in to our system to run processes, and the create user's name appearing in front of the Dashboard name can confuse them when they look for the appropriate dashboard (as they do not know that is the same shared dashboard).

Thanks

Generally speaking, we have precisely the opposite issue here, which is that there are enough shared dashboards (often of similar name) that it is sometimes difficult to figure out which is the one you want. This particular feature goes a long way to alleviating this issue, because even if you don't remember the exact name of the dashboard you're looking for, you often know who created it and that can reduce the potential candidates to a very small list.

This feature might not be useful to all, but we would hate to see it get removed entirely, so at a minimum I would propose that this feature be made an optional setting as part of the dashboard configuration. Expanding on that, a server configuration option that allows this feature to be turned off and on by default would also be useful as well, and we are ok with it defaulting to whatever the PMEase folks feel is most appropriate for their customers.

EDIT: I haven't seen a ticket get created for this yet, but I will add these comments there as soon as I do.

I have created improvement QB-2916. (Would've done this before I created forum post, but wanted to be sure I wasn't missing something).

Thanks

Please check this issue request:

We will remove the owner's name from dashboard in next patch release as we received many complains for displaying this owner name. After all, the tooltip indicates which owner this dashboard is from.
