Hi Ghulam,
Much of Gibbon displays the student’s name as: Preferred Name + Surname. Is it possible that the student’s full name has been entered in the preferred name field? This might cause it to appear twice. Otherwise, a screenshot (with any personal details obscured) may be helpful to illustrate what you’re seeing.
Dear Sandra,
Yes we have student full name in the proffered Name field. and we have numeric usernames so we don't need automated usernames. Therefore we want only to display students official name. instead of the names as
for example
Showing
ABDUL REHMAN NADEEM ABDUL REHMAN NADEEM
but it should be
ABDUL REHMAN NADEEM
Ahmad AHMAD MUSTAFVI should be AHMAD MUSTAFVI
Rehman Sarwar MUHAMMAD REHMAN SARWAR should be MUHAMMAD REHMAN SARWAR
Hope these examples make it clear
Best Regards,
Hi Ghulam, in this case I would put ABDUL REHMAN as the preferredName and then NADEEM as the surname, and it should output how you want. officialName is seldom used in Gibbon, only when producing reports, etc. Most the time we use preferredName surname, or surname, preferredName. Thanks, Ross.
