To synchronize the realName user preference from fields in the tracker | |
To set this up, get in Control Panels->Log in page and set the user tracker for "User tracker IDs to sync prefs from". This may seem redundant considering all of the above but there may be more than one user tracker if there are different ones set for different groups (but most of the time there will be only one). There might even be no user tracker set for any group. All you need is a tracker with a User selector field configured as explained above. Then, set "Tracker field IDs to sync Real Name pref from:". You can update from multiple fields and set the priority of field sets to choose from. For example, if fieldId 10 is First Name, 11 is Last Name, and 12 is Preferred Name, then a setting of "12,10+11" will first check if the user has a preferred name set and use that if so, and if not, then it will use the First Name/Last Name combination with a space in between. |
