      The people directory is only populated post-login for LDAP users. It would be nice to have an option to do this pre-login.

            Hi we are using LDAP through Crowd, though this only seems to bring in only usernames and email addresses but no other details to the user profile pages. Is there a way that we can populate the information in profile pages with info we hold in AD?
            Thanks

            My client went through and added phone numbers as an admin for each user and this seems to have made them appear in the people directory.

            One conceivable workaround would be to use the CLI:

            https://studio.plugins.atlassian.com/wiki/display/CSOAP/Confluence+Command+Line+Interface

            You could get all the LDAP users:
            confluence --action getUserList --group "testgroup2"

            Write them to a file, and then iterate through logins:
            confluence --action login > data/confluencecli/output/login.txt
