Change the Display name for FBA Users


i:0#.f|mName|accountname
mName = membershipprovideraliasinCentralAdmin
accountname = account in Active Directory
  1. You would need to run a PowerShell command for the –Web parameter being the SiteCollection URL.
  2. You would need to login to that Site Collection at least once for the script to update the Display Name. This is something like alerts on a site will work for the user if we would have logged into that site collection at least once.
Set-SPUser “i:0#.f|mName|accountname” -Web http://sp2010/ -DisplayName "User Name"

Real World Branding with SharePoint 2010 Publishing Sites http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/gg430141.aspx#Y13640 The most important source of information is the  SDK . I can’t stress that enough. There is so much more documentation with this release than there was with 2007. However, we are all in the habit of looking to each other for information first.
