Displaying Surname in chat messages

Hey!

I have a small problem with the chat module. When several students have the same first name it is impossible to know who wrote a message.

For example: We have three Johns in the chatroom. To the right their surnames are shown but when they write a message all that it says is: "HH:MM John: message content"

Is there a way to add the surname to that message? So it would be like: "HH:MM John Anderson: message content"

Thanks in advance

Hello,

i searched moodle.org and Google for the same issue. Unfortunately i can't find a solution...

In my Moodle 1.9.13 i didn't find any possibility, to fix it. Furthermore i've checked the code (.../mod/chat/), but my knowledge of PHP and JS isn't good enough, for understanding the problem.

Anybody can help?

Greetz, Jan
