Hi - Trombinoscopeextended is working very well for me - I am setting up a new site now, but it seems like it is removing peoples middle names?

If I have an employee named Homer John Simpson, his name shows up as Homer Simpson.

How can I avoid that? I need to be able to show peoples full names.

Hello,
the name formatting option in the component can only handle 2-parts names (a first and last name) in the present version. Anything different than that cannot really be formatted properly, so just use the 'name' formatting option to avoid the middle name to be cut off.
The formatting option has been improved in the upcoming version but does not handle middle names at the moment.
Thank you for using Trombinoscope Extended!
Olivier.

I have found a simple work around for the issue. In contact manager, I wrote the name as follow:
Homer John Simpson.

Works!

Thank you for your answer and for participating in the discussion.
Handling middle names is simple as long as everybody has only one middle name. If someone has none, or 2 for that matter, this gets trickier.
