18,713 Pointssec:authorization="name" does not render username, even after principal name is set.
I have used the template engine from https://github.com/treehouse/todotoday/blob/master/src/main/java/com/teamtreehouse/todotoday/config/TemplateConfig.java.
My templates directory is a direct child of the resources directory. I checked that the Principal from the controller contains the correct username as the current logged in user's name. I used an anchor element with an attribute of sec:authorization="name", but no markup appears on the webpage. IntelliJ complained about the namespace not being bound, but I suppressed those warning as Chris suggested in the teacher's notes of https://teamtreehouse.com/library/integrating-user-data-into-our-application. Any help would be highly appreciated.
Currently I am using th:inline="text" with [[${#httpServletRequest.remoteUser}]] within the anchor element and the username is displayed properly. Please let me know what you think.
