I have read the posts in the forum from 08 that gave code etc to make the name value hidden etc. None of that worked for me maybe i am doing some thing wrong but i know its the joomla registration that is requesting this for when i turn off the joomla registration for the form it goes away.

No matter what i try the red box with please enter your name wont go away...any help please? no sure what information you need....

Hi ksmith,

2008 was a while ago and ChronoForms and the plugins have changed since then.

You need to have a name set value somehow; how are you doing this now?

PS From memory you need to have values for Name, UserName, Email & Password. It's quite possible to set all of these except Email 'invisibly' but we do need to know what you are trying to do.

Thanks for your response! Ok, what i did was what the 2008 logs had said about adding the value invisible in the html....

What i am trying to do is i have a registration form that has first name / last name fields, stagename, email etc. No password fields it said it would auto generate, i dont want them to be able to log in auto after registration anyway so i did not set up a confirmation page.

Ok, so i enable the joomla reg with the registration form. Set the fields for name to include first and last name fields (text_3,text_4) and the username for the stagename (text_5). left password blank. But it is still asking for please add name even though those fields are filled in. If i turn off the joomla reg connected to form it goes through fine!

Hi ksmith,

Set the fields for name to include first and last name fields (text_3,text_4)

You can't do that, only one field name (no brackets or quotes) per box.

To concatenate the two parts put them both into a new 'name' field in the Before Code box and use that in the name box. Don't have time to find the code right now -- there are at least a couple of posts on this here.

I couldnt get it to work so i just change the first/last to one field called full name and put that text_1 in the joomla reg plugin and now it works..

However the issue is if they make a mistake or reload the page the captcha comes up as {Recaptcha} instead of the recaptcha box how do i fix that. Also if they enter the wrong code it is doing that as well....

Hi Ksmith,

When I use the link from the Forms Manager to view the form on your site then the ReCaptcha re-publishes OK. How are you using the form? Is it with the Plugin?
