If that attendee searches by anything that starts with these three words, the attendee will show up.
Data Tag Support in Code Snippets
Attendee Hub and Login will support data tags in code snippets in order to track specific attendee or event information.

Allow Registration After Event Date
You will now be able to collect registrations post-event, up to the event archival date, for those attendees that will be consuming on demand content after the live dates have passed.
