Hello,We are using:
  • Joomla 5
  • Community Builder 2.11
Our registration form uses the standard CB fields:
  • Code:
    firstname
  • Code:
    middlename
  • Code:
    lastname
For the names we need the format:
Code:
Lastname Firstname Middlename
We have configured:
Code:
Name Format = Custom Custom Name Format = [lastname] [firstname] [middlename]
This correctly affects
Code:
formatname
, but the Joomla user field
Code:
#__users.name
is still being saved as:
Code:
Firstname Middlename Lastname
Questions:
  1. Is there a supported way in CB 2.11 to save Joomla
    Code:
    users.name
    as:
    Code:
    [lastname] [firstname] [middlename]
    during registration and profile updates?
  2. Can
    Code:
    Custom Name Format
    be used to populate Joomla
    Code:
    users.name
    , or does it only affect
    Code:
    formatname
    ?
  3. Is there a CB Auto Actions or CB Code Field method recommended by CB to synchronize
    Code:
    #__users.name
    with a custom name format?
Thank you!
