StudentName from LMS

I've used Student_Name for some years now without seeing this problem.

What LMS? Version of Lectora? Published to what target? (AICC? SCORM?)

Publish with debugging turned on, and see what values AICC_Student_Name takes.

If that is not productive, use a network packet analyzer (e. g. Wireshark) and see exactly what information the LMS sends. I'm suspecting an LMS bug since this is not a known Lectora issue.

Isn't that a built-in variable / "Change content" action, published to Scorm / Javascript? It should be alright as otherwise the name would not appear at all. The doubled first name seems to be in the variable.

Does Saba have a profile field for the middle name? Maybe the first name is in both fields?

Hi, Tere,

You're using JavaScript to read the student name. I always used the built-in variables in Lectora, in Lectora Actions.

I believe that to access a Lectora Variable within a JavaScript extension, you would preface the variable name with "Var". Try using "VarAICCStudentName".

Note: I added the SCORM and JavaScript keywords to this thread.

Hi CarlFink!

Thank you. We are using SABA Cloud. The Lectora version I am using is v17 and I am publishing to SCORM.

I run the course from our LMS, and inspect the elements and I've got attached screenshot.

Hi Carl and Tim,

Yes, I have used the built-in variable from Lectora. The above screenshot was when I run the course from LMS and inspect the page element.

But in Lectora, I have an On page Show action that will change the content of the textbox with a text + variable.

Why not test your course on SCORM Cloud (http://cloud.scorm.com)? Free account, and if the problem does not happen there, you know it's somewhere in the SABA/Lectora communication. At that point (or maybe now) Trivantis support might be the place to get help.

I tested this with Lectora 17.0.6 in moodle and it worked as it should. How does the name look like in your page? The content of AICC_Student_Name should be:

Lastname, Firstname
