Did you know?

You can update your profile to include a Preferred Narrative Name? 

It's True!

Let me tell you how it works! 

 

Configuration:

On your User Profile, you can add a Preferred Narrative Name. 

The Preferred Narrative Name will be used when the User Placeholder is applied in drop-ins or templates. 

Configuring Drop-Ins with a User Placeholder:

Your list of placeholders shows when you type $. 

The User placeholder is used to pull in the Preferred Narrative Name from your user profile. 

For our Bells Administrators, the same configuration can be done for Templates. 

 

See it in action!

You can access your new drop-in with the User placeholder via your drop-in list. 

There are 3 ways to access your drop-ins: 

  1. Click the drop-in icon in the format bar or,
  2. Type a ~ and select your drop-in or, 
  3. Type / and select Drop-Ins

 

VIOLA! Here's your drop-in using the Preferred Narrative Name for the signed in user.
