User Name Display Options

Information Displayed After User Names

User names can be displayed in one of following formats:

1: The name that is set in the "Localized name" field on the user profile.
2: The name that is set in the "Display name" field on the user profile.

If the "Localized name" field for the language that is selected in "Languages of names" on Garoon is empty, the name that is set in the "Display name" field is displayed as the user name.

You can change this format in your Personal settings.
