Display Tributes on gifts in WebView as [Tribute Type] [Tribute Description], rather than the current set up of [Tribute Type] [Constituent Name (Honor/Memorial record)]

    Tributes also appear this way on the constituent record, and it's very frustrating. A constituent can have many tributes, and I would like to see them appear on the tile as "in honor of <deceased spouse>" (for records with non-constituent spouses) and "in honor of your dog's birthday" and "in honor of completing your first 10k" or whatever it is. Currently, a record with those three tributes would show "in memory of <living spouse>", "in honor of <living spouse>", "in honor of <living spouse>" which is confusing to many users. I'm aware that on constituents you can click the down arrow to see the description, but it needs to be at the top level instead of the constituent name.

    In addition, I've been telling people for years that best practice for tributes who should not be constituents (pets, deceased non-donors to your org, etc.) is to place on a single anonymous record to allow for correct gift acknowledgements without cluttering up other areas of the database.

    100% agree that the Tribute Description would be more informational because we already know the Constituent's Name, so showing that is redundant.

    This would be very helpful for records with multiple tributes and to be able to see additional information. Instead of the current view of "In celebration of Joe Smith" it would display "In celebration of Joe Smith's 100th Birthday". It will help both fundraisers and staff to identify tribute gifts, and the meaning behind them, at a glance.
