SID-02181: Default signature shows full name instead of WikiName

TWiki 6.0.2

When a new topic is created, the default signature includes the user's full name, not the WikiName.

On the edit page, the signature shows up as %USERSIG{MyWikiName - 2016-03-23}%, but when the page is saved, this shows up using "My Real Name - 2016-03-23", not my WikiName. I'd like it to be my WikiName.

I copied the setting

• • • Set SIGNATUREFORMAT = -- %CALCULATE{%U}%SERSIG{%WIKINAME% - %DATE%}%

The variable %WIKINAME% should evaluate to one's WikiName, should it not? How can I get the default signature to use WikiNames?

Try this:

• Set SIGNATUREFORMAT = -- %WIKIUSERNAME% - %DATE%
