Is there a display name option for TeamRaiser participants?

Options

I'm wondering if there is a feature available in TeamRaiser, where a participant can choose a display name that would show as their participant name.  We have participants who want a name different from their's to show on their participant page, and in top fundraising lists etc.  Any ideas are welcome!

  • Hi Becca,

     

    TeamRaiser offers a few different options for display name. You'll find the options in the TeamRaiser set up 5b (Manage Participant Types - Select Type Options) #6. Here's the info from the Convio help section:

     

    As part of the Participation Type setup, you can select to offer participants a way to set a Screen Name to use instead of the default First and Last Name in search results, status lists, and fundraising pages that site visitors can see. When a participant adds a Screen Name, this name displays in place of their name on the fundraising event pages, including:

    • Search results lists
    • Scrolling lists status indicators, like Top Ten Participants and Gift honor rolls
    • Personal Page of the participant

    You can also offer the option to keep their name anonymous, which means that their name will not display in search results lists or scrolling status indicators. Their First and Last Name will display on their Personal Page, but a person must know the URL or URL Shortcut to the Personal Page of the participant.

    If you do not select to display either the Screen Name or Anonymous options to participants, the system automatically uses the First and Last Name entered during registration by default.
