DNN 7: Display Name Format Setting

I have attempted to change the Display Name Format in the User Settings for DNN 7 with the following token:

[FIRSTNAME]

But for some reason DNN isn't displaying it like that anywhere across the site. It's still displaying it like [LASTNAME], [FIRSTNAME].

How do I fix this without manually having to go through thousands of automatically populated records?

Solution

  • For your existing users you will likely need to update it manually in the Database.

    Not positive, but I believe DisplayName is on the User's Table, so you could update it there for each user using a t-sql statement.
