Hi Jordi,

tried to add this user to new created edoovillage as project manager, but system did no show me the user (when you type part of the name
usually it shows you the matching user(s). But now it does not work for some users. E.g. for my own user it works. Please check, thanks.

Ralf

Hi Ralf, that's because you are using the 'name of the user', instead of the 'username'.

For instance, your name is 'Ralf Hamm (Labdoo Hub Rhein-Ruhr)', however your username is 'rhein-ruhr-hub'. If you try to add 'Ralf' in the autocomplete field, you will not be able to find your name. But it you try 'rhein', then you will be able to find it.

The same thing happens for this new user. The 'name of this user' is 'Save Our Souls - 1915.de e.V.', but the 'username' is 'sos1915'. So please try with the username 'sos1915' and you will see that it works.

The reason we need to use the 'username' instead of the 'Name of the user' is because only the 'username' is unique. The 'Name of the user' can be anything the user decides, so it could be repeated.

The next question is how do you know the username? there is a simple way. Go to the user's page: https://www.labdoo.org/user/1689. Now click on the 'View' tab. A new URL will show up on the browser: https://www.labdoo.org/users/sos1915. From this URL, you can see that the username is sos1915.

To simplify finding the actual username of a user, and based on your feedback, i just added a new field called 'Username' under every user's page too, see the attached picture.
