I tried setting up a member name mapping convention so that the source members ending with a "Id" are mapped to destination members without Id. For example

UserId -> User

How does one do this? I tried using SourceMemberNameTransformer without success. Also tried using RecognizePostfixes().

    this.SourceMemberNameTransformer = s =>
                                      {     
                                          return s.Replace("Id", string.Empty);
                                      };
