Split name into first and last names when adding people in circle details #683

Closed rgoj closed 2 years ago

rgoj commented 2 years ago

At the moment when adding people in the circle details view people often type in their first name and last name together only to be frustrated by the fact that both end up in the first name field and so need to be manually moved around.

We discussed the long term solution to this problem: just using a single field name - that's the more inclusive option. It's not a lot of work... but required changing the data model and quite a few bits of code. The issue tracking this is #684.

However, a workaround to just split the name if there is a space entered might work for most cases at the moment, considering our limited reach, until we work on i18n perhaps.
