MyRequest with RT 3.4.1

Question #1

MyRequest display’s “10 newest unowned tickets”. Which is useful, but
how do I display the tickets that I requested?
By default I can see tickets that I own and tickets that are unowned,
but I can’t see tickets that I created without creating a query.

Seems to me MyRequest is kinda mis-named.

Question #2

Is there a way to create a a different display for my IT Staff and the
general users? For example I want my IT Staff to see MyTickets and
MyRequest, but I don’t want my users seeing MyTickets and MyRequest.
I’d prefer to allow them to just see the tickets they created.

It is. For the next big release, we’ve fixed it up.

General users shouldn’t be seeing MyTickets and MyRequests. They should be
using SelfService.

I’ll second that. Having your saved searches on the main page is
extremely helpful. We’ve found the two top 10 lists to not be very
helpful, but having quick links to what can be complex and specific
queries makes RT much more functional.

You might want to check out the “QUEBEC-EXPERIMENTAL” branch of RT,
which includes fully user-customizable front pages, as well as many
other goodies.
