Real Names Next To Nicknames by GrayHam on 09-05-2006 at 01:56 PM

Hi there

I'm migrating over to WLM from MSN and have a question.

My friend's sometimes choose amusing nicknames for themselves; I like to see these names as they sometimes form the start of a conversation. With the old version of messenger plus I had the ability to add in an extra name next to their nickname for myself so that rather than simply replacing the nickname I had both the nickname and the person's actual name up on screen next to each other.

I understand that I could add the information to the contact card however this would save me having to click through additional screens each time I wanted to check.

Is this possible in the new version and if so how?

Thanks in anticipation

GrayHam

Due to WLM's own nickname feature, the old Plus!'s Custom names has been dropped for now. Whether returns depends on how far the WLM team develop their feature.

Thanks for that RaceProUK - I'll try transcribing the information over to the contact card format just now.
