Retrieve LMS User Name as Variable
I know you can have a user fill in a text box with their name and then later use that variable for personalization. What we would like to do is programmatically retrieve the user name from the LMS....
Hi Philip -
If the LMS changed something, it could require a slight shift. Add the bolded line below to see if something changes.
var player = GetPlayer();
lmsAPI=parent;
var myName = lmsAPI.GetStudentName();
var array = myName.split(',');
var newName = array[1] + ' ' + array[0];
player.SetVar("newName", newName);
Hi Steve. Thanks for the suggestion, but that didn't fix it.
