[rt-users] Owner not showing in search results?

[Alex Hall]

I just wondered if anyone had any more thoughts on this problem. We just
set up email dashboards, and they're doing the same thing search results
do; owners are often set to 'nobody', but if you go into the ticket, the
real owner is shown. Since dashboards and searches use the same display, or
seem to, I'm not surprised. But seeing that reminded me that this is still
a problem we'd like to get fixed if possible. As I mentioned before, I've
made no changes to the search results pages, and the problem appears to be
when the owner is set via our script to auto-assign the requestor as the
owner. The owner is set correctly if you view the ticket, but not if that
ticket appears in a search results page. Thanks.
