Signup form problem
« on: February 10, 2007, 02:35:16 am »
In looking at the signup code page, it only displays custom fields.
Why doesn't the signup form include global fields?

I'd want to be able to include all the global fields, such as address, city, state, zip, phone, etc., but there are not enough list-specific custom field slots available to handle everything I need, so adding the global fields into the list-specific field list is not an option.

Unfortunately there is a limit of 10 fields per list and the fields cannot be made global at this time.  Changes are planned for future releases.  You may want to vote here:

Hi Dean,

Thanks for getting back to me.  I can make do for the time being by combining more than one item in a field.  For example,

I'm storing the username and password like this:

username|password

Then I have to later split up the fields.  That involves a fair amount of extra work, though. It means that I can store the data, but I can't use the fields easily in emails.

As a workaround, I'm telling people:

Your username|password are xxxx|zzzzz

That's the best I can do for now.

Thanks,

Rich

P.S. The custom HTML is working great now that I understand it.
