Hi Adam,
Thank you for this information. I will check our settings file when I am back
in the office next week.

Subject: Re: [Arches] NameTypes Question
Hi Lucy, if you look in your settings.py file at the resource type
configurations, you'll see that each resource type has something like:
'primary_name_lookup': {
'entity_type': 'NAME.E41',
'lookup_value': 'Primary'
}
As I understand it, this is meant to define what node holds the name value,
and what value type will make that name be the one shown as the primary name
(in this case, the value "Primary" is used). So I think that the building
blocks are in place for this to work properly, but I have also not found it to
work consistently.

Hello,
We have had exactly the same problem with non primary names becoming the
name of the resource and showing on the map. I had thought that as name types
are user generated, there was no programming to ensure that the primary name
was always shown. We found that the first name to be input is the one shown on
the map and used as the resource name. We just worked around it by always
inputting the primary name first. But, I recently discovered that if you go
back in and edit the resource to add further alternative names, again, the
first name you input in the edit session becomes the name of the resource and
on the map. This definitely needs fixing as the workaround would be too
cumbersome.
Thank you,
Lucy
