Codes with and without team names
« on: January 10, 2018, 11:39:37 PM »
I hope this makes sense....

I posted a question a few weeks ago about trying to get the 'Persons Shown' variable to work. I now have this sorted however I'm wondering if there's a way the I can add a players name to Persons Shown which will also go to Keywords using {Persons} but will add the players Team and name to the Captions field? Example below....

Captions: Manchester United's Ryan Giggs

Keywords: Ryan Giggs

Persons shown: Ryan Giggs

At the moment I'm adding the name with the team in Persons shown field which also goes to  the Caption field and then delete the team name from Persons shown and keywords or, I add the team to the Caption field. Either way, it takes time doing it.

Thanks.

Jon,

You can use variables with Code Replacement to automate this somewhat.  You'll still have to manually enter the person's name or jersey number in some field that you can use its corresponding variable as the Code and then choose from your list of Replacements.

Have a look at the above and if you're still struggling, let me know and I'll give you specific examples.
