Hi Lars,

Thought I should resuscitate this as it seems the fix did not make it to 2.14 ( 
at least as at now) . I think this feature is quite important especially for 
use of information in the DHIS . As Knut suggested it will be better to 
actually have the option set in each analysis module per user but implementing 
that will be quite a task I imagine. The original `implementation that allows a 
user to define use of shortname vs longnames as a global `setting will at least 
provide some shorterm solution while we look for more lasting answers.

This should have a high priority, since many charts look quite stupid and often 
actually misleading/wrong with long names. Orgunit names present a particular 
challenge, as in many countries there is a need to have "double names" such as 
Lao+English, since Orgunit names are currently not translatable.

 

But I'm not sure I would want it to be a universal user choice, would perhaps 
feels more natural to have it as an option for each chart or map? Or maybe as a 
universal choice which could be overridden for particular resources.

Hi Dapo,

this feature did not completely make it into 2.13 and was unfortunately 
half-done. The setting was removed from 2.13 last week. Will implement as soon 
as we get time.

Hi Devs,

Just to make sure I wasn’t doing anything wrong before reporting this as a bug. 
Users should be able to choose whether to use ‘name’ or ‘short name’  for 
metadata in analysis modules. This should be set by each user under their 
profiles……this doesn’t seem to be working – Any similar experiences or how 
should this work?
