Automatically place the name of the user in the course content

There is a small feature in our platform which lets you put the learner's name in the course content. You can do this in content parts, the explanation above a block, the explanation at the end of an activity and in widgets.


Below you will find a few examples of how you can display the names:


John Johnson:

${user.fullName}


Johnson, John:
${user.formalName}


John:

${user.firstName}


Johnson:

${user.lastName}


There is also an option to display Dutch tussenvoegsels, French particules or German von with ${user.middleName}


You do not need to enter this in HTML, you can just enter it in the editor.


An example:


Hi ${user.firstName},

Welcome to this course!


This will be displayed as:


Hi John,

Welcome to this course!
