adding name and email to joomla db without password

wdemilly 15 Mar, 2010
I have a simple form: <!-- w --><a class="postlink" href="http://www.vestrack.com">www.vestrack.com</a><!-- w --> which is designed to capture an email address and a name, and enter it into the joomla database. I don't need a password because the form is not meant to be a "login" form.

When I try this method, and test the form I receive an error message "password is required."

How can I eliminate this requirement?

As you can see from the site there are no other forms or even articles.... so if I need to disable something or create a different table for my database let me know. (however if I create a different table for the database... well, I don't know how to do that!)

Thanks

Hi wdemilly,

Where are you saving the info? It sounds as though you may be using the jos_users table??

Please see the Database Tutorial from the Tutorials link above for info on creating a new table.
