Question

Remove Domain Name from {/_currentuser} Token

Forms

asked on October 21, 2015

Hello,

I have a form that is using a lookup into a table of usernames. When I use the {/_currentuser} token in forms, it also pulls the domain name. What is the code to strip the domain out, leaving only the username?

Also the {/dataset/_initiator} doesn't populate the field with any data at all.

Create a field (q1) that will use the default value, {/_currentuser}. Then using JS, you can modify the string to only use the username.

$(document).ready(function () {
  $('#q1 input').val($('#q1 input').val().substr($('#q1 input').val().lastIndexOf('\\') + 1));
});

Hi there,

The initiator doesn't pull any name if you haven't submitted the start form is expected, because there's no initiator yet.
