Issue 2: Getting a No Match Found. Please proceed with the standard registration” error message when typing a name in the Returning Visitor search bar. 

Inserting image...  Resolution time varies.

 

Step 1: Check for the visitor’s record on the iLobby portal through portal.goilobby.com.  The visitor’s name must match exactly how they are trying to enter it on the iPad 

Step 2: Make sure that a visitor enters their full name (first name and last name).  If only a single name or last name is entered, the system assumes it is the visitor's last name. 

Inserting image...  This flow works best if visitors enter their first and last name as they did originally. 

Step 3: It is possible to apply a rule to the “Full Name” Data Field that requires visitors to input their First and Last names before continuing their sign-in. If you’d like to have it implemented for you, please reach out to Support@iLobby.com.
