Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.Problem/Motivation
In #2340363-45: Add issue comment attribution it was noticed that an org in the profile was not showing in the add comment attribution UI.
This was because that org did not have an organization page. That field on the profile edit is a plain text field. The entity reference field is hidden and programmatically populated. Just an entity reference won't work because there isn't a way for it to have text without a reference.
People will wonder why they cannot reference their orgs.
The help text for customers says they need an organization page, but the one for orgs does not, it just links to the profile page (so a user can edit it and add their org name).
Proposed resolution
Add an indicator on the profile edit work section to show which have org pages.
Remaining tasks

drummYep, and we should link to create a new organization page, too.
This might be a separate issue - if there is a good way to say "Did you mean 2bits.com, Inc." when you type 2bits, or autocomplete, that would be helpful.

alimac CreditAttribution: alimac commentedThis issue cause me confusion just now. I added the organization I work for, but when I went back to post a comment it still said "not applicable - add organization to your profile". Maybe it might be worth to note this in the hint, too?
"Add organizations to your profile. Organization must have an organization page."

Perignon CreditAttribution: Perignon commented+1 Glad I found this issue, now I know why my organization stuff was blank. Also the names must match exactly, found that out the hard way.

drummThe user edit page now mentions that organizations are better when matching, and provides feedback if a specific organization does not match.
