This works in 1.3: var $displayField = 'full_name'; function __construct($id = false, $table = null, $ds = null) { parent::__construct($id, $table, $ds); $this->virtualFields['full_name'] = sprintf('CONCAT(%s.first_name, " ", %s.last_name)', $this->alias, $this->alias); }
Then full_name is available as a field in all finds.
