2947503 - Nickname is presented when user is posting some content in SAP Jam

Symptom

User has maintained a nickname under the profile, and now every time this user posts something on SAP Jam, the nickname is being shown and not the first name.

Environment

SAP Jam Collaboration

Reproducing the Issue

  1. Go to User Profile;
  2. Edit the nickname of this user;
  3. Go to some group and do a post;
  4. See that the nickname is presented in the place of the first name on the author.

Cause

This is an expected behavior. When you have a nickname maintained, the system understands that you want this nickname to be presented in your posts inside of SAP Jam.

Resolution

Currently there is not any configuration where you can opt by showing the first name or the nickname in the posts. Once you have the nickname, it will be shown by default.
