Name Sort +1, +2 Bug Fixed
Our “A-Z Names” sort is a powerful sort that goes through your complex list of names, and sorts them by last name. To do this, it has to make some judgements about which name is the last name, based on clues like “Mr.”, “Mrs.”, “Jr”, “Dr”, “and”, “&”, etc.
We were remiss, however, in handling a very common name list convention, where you say something like
- Bill Clinton +2
- Mr. Paulton +1
- Mr. Brady + 8
with the number after the plus sign telling you how many people will be coming with that guest. Well, we handled this case badly, but we feel it’s now being handled properly, so enjoy!
