[15:36:11 CST(-0600)] <Sam4242> I have another question about the channel: What is the difference between the 'fname' and the 'name'? (as XML tags)

[15:36:44 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> fname is a unique, url safe name used for easier direct access to a channel

[15:36:57 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> name is what the administrator sees in the admin UIs

[15:36:59 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> title is what the end user sees

[15:37:05 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> so you might have:

[15:37:15 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> title: Payroll Information

[15:37:24 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> name: Payroll Information - Students

[15:37:33 CST(-0600)] <EricDalquist> fname: payroll_info_students
