Hi i know its in tweaks but i already have this there because i need first name first and last name last:
author_sort_copy_method = 'fn ln' author_name_suffixes = ('Jr', 'Sr', 'Inc', 'Ph.D', 'Phd', 'MD', 'M.D', 'I', 'II', 'III', 'IV', 'Junior', 'Senior') author_name_prefixes = ('Mr', 'Mrs', 'Ms', 'Dr', 'Prof') author_name_copywords = ('Corporation', 'Company', 'Co.', 'Agency', 'Council', 'Committee', 'Inc.', 'Institute', 'Society', 'Club', 'Team') |

You are chasing 2 different problems. Start a new thread when the topic changes.
EXISTING Author sort values need to be recomputed for the new rule to be in effect. (Under the Tag Browser)Alter Tag Browser:Manage Authors... :Manage Authors: click the recalculate button Note: this is also the place to 'touch up' the names that don't quite fit the rules |
