The discussion revolves around displaying full names and titles in Discourse emails. watchmanmonitor suggests adding titles to emails to bring a consistent experience to users in both email and on the web. eviltrout agrees and implements the change, with watchmanmonitor appreciating the result.
However, watchmanmonitor and codinghorror point out that the implementation is inconsistent with the site settings, as it displays the username, title, but not the full name. eviltrout addresses this by adding the full name and tweaking the styles.
Jared_Needell suggests an option to hide the username when the full name is present, a point initially touched upon by watchmanmonitor.
Currently, the Full Name is used in the “from” in emails sent, which is incredibly helpful. The title is shown nicely in the forum, and can important information about a pers. We’re going to be using Title to indicate important information about each person in a forum I’m running, and having the Title visible in the emails would help bring the same experience to users in both email and on the web.
In the example below, words posted by Robin have more “weight” on the right in the forum because they are attributed to Co-Founder. That same message on the left is missing this important information.
I’m hoping we can see the Title added to the emails.
Confused because full name in emails was “supposed” to already be there … but don’t recall ever seeing it, and can’t find the site setting @techAPJ alluded to in this topic & PR:
