Hi There

Wondering if it’s possible to program the User’s name into the experience eg: put in code/comments box so that you can ask the Learner: “What is your name”, then periodically use the name during the experience eg:  “Great response Jim!” or “Jim, which of these is a xxxxx”

Fine. Here is the link to the blog (second version with HTML output) about checking if the learner has indeed filled in a value in a TEB:

Very easy.
First of all check if the user variable cpQuizInfoStudentName is not already populated by the correct name if you are using a LMS. It may be the case.

If that is not the correct value, use a Text Entry Box to ask for the name. Make sure the TEB is filled in (if you need a link to a blog explaining how, tell me). Each TEB has an associated variable which will store that name.

To insert the name in any text container, use the workflow to insert the variable (with X button) as explained in this blog (it is also valid for user variables, not only for system vars):
