Modifier :initials
Initials only. Example: {Contact Name:130.3:initials} gives G.. On the test form, this field is {Contact Name:130.3} (Name, one part).
About
Each word becomes its first letter and a period, so "Ada Lovelace" is "A.L.". A whole Name field renders nothing in Gravity Forms, so use one of its inputs.
Works in any merge tag while GravityView is active, including Gravity Forms notifications.

| Field kinds | Why |
|---|---|
| Name | Outputs nothing on the whole field. Gravity Forms has no single value for this field as a whole, so the tag outputs nothing and so does any modifier. Use one part instead, like .3 for a first name. |
