Question

Any way to use a custom field for attendee name?

I went to Meeting > Preferences > Display Name and saw that you can add/remove First Name and Last Name, but I was wondering if there was a way to get custom fields into the list of available fields.  I added a "Display Name' custom field in Administration -> Users and Groups -> Customize User Profiles section, but it doesn't show up in the meeting.  I really don't want to show the user's real names.

On a side note this page says it can be done.  However this does not work for me.  Maybe it's because I have a trial account?

Hi webheadllc,

You can certainly add a custom feild as an Account admin, but you can just use that to define sort order in the attendee pod. You cant hide a name from attendee pod, but yes as a host you can edit users info and change their names. OR, if you dont want others to see the attendee pod, you can move the attendee pod to Presenter only Area (POA).

Hope that helps!
