Description
With the introduction of the newly refactored settings dialog (#4265), it was made possible to add settings screens outside a board.
However, using this in other views, like the WIP template view (#4254) revealed that changing the user name or avatar would not be applied to the state until reloading the page.
The reason for this is simple: We use the features
participants
andauth
separately, both of which contain information about the name and avatar of a user. The difference lies in where the information is available:auth.user
is always available after the user has logged inparticipants.self
is only available after joining a board.The way these two change is also different:
auth.user
is initially retrieved after logging in and doesn't change.participant.self
is updated when a server event is sent.Thus, the solution is to apply the changes to the user (name and avatar specifically) so we aren't dependent on being in a board session. In places where user information is required, using
auth
instead ofparticipants
is required.Changelog
