Pathways levels seem not working on FTH Nametags

7 years 11 months ago

In Member Profile is a field to enter "* Your Name with Toastmasters Designation ". When John Smith, L1 is entered OR John Smith, SR1 is entered ... and then when nametags are printed, the nametag for John Smith omits the Smith and uses L1 or SR1 as the last name. Is there a way to get them to show up (properly)? John Smith, DTM and John Smith, ACB, ALB show up fine. Thanks

This seems to be something that needs to be looked into by our developer.
Until that happens you could try this workaround: Put an underscore character between the last name and the qualification. That will treat it as a double barrel name: John Smith_L1 will display as John Smith L1.

Because of the 5 levels and 10 paths, I would have to support 50 or so combinations in names and in addition, the new Pathways equivalents are very verbose and unwieldy to used somewhere where space matters like on a Name Tag. The name splitter function that I use would have to get very complicated to handle all those combinations.

Because of the technical and space considerations, I have not yet committed to supporting Pathways on name tags and I am not going to commit to any target date for that. I will not say "never", but I will say "not anytime soon".

In the mean time, I think Pam's suggestion is a good workaround.
