Personalise a page with the visitor's name

You can greet a person by name when they visit your page, provided that they're signed in to warwick.ac.uk.
  1. Go to the page where you want to add the greeting.
  2. Go to Edit > Edit centre content or Edit right content.
  3. Place your cursor in the visual editor where you want to add the name.
  4. In the toolbar, select Insert a > Name of logged in user.
  5. Select one of the three options in the Name of logged in user window: First name, Last name or Full name.
  6. Depending on which option you chose in the previous step, one of the following lines is added to the visual editor:

    [if-anon invert=true]Hello, [firstname][/if-anon]
    [if-anon invert=true]Hello, [lastname][/if-anon]
    [if-anon invert=true]Hello, [name][/if-anon]
  7. To change the greeting, edit the text between the [if-anon] tags – for example:

    [if-anon invert=true]Hi [firstname][/if-anon]
    [if-anon invert=true]Dear [name][/if-anon]
  8. When you have finished editing the page, select Publish. You should see your name displayed on the page where you added the personalisation tag.
