    When sending an auto respond email - I would like to address it to first name only - yourName - Field ID will include first and last name - can you please advise how to do this?
    Thanks,
    Gabrielle.

    In yourName field you just add ":first" for first name.

    so it would be..

    {yourName:first}

    These are the specific tags stripped if you enable "Middle Name, Prefix, Suffix". Assuming fullName2 as the unique name of your Name field

    {fullName2} renders Dr. John Michael Doe Ph.d (the period after the prefix is automatically inserted)

    {fullName2:first} renders John

    {fullName2:middle} renders Michael

    {fullName2:last} renders Doe

    {fullName2:prefix}. {fullName2:last} renders Dr. Doe (in this case, the period and space must be manually added)

    {fullName2:prefix}. {fullName2:last} {fullName2:suffix} renders Dr. Doe Ph.D



    Hope that helps.
