I'm wondering if the NAME field is required in the form on the web pages. The reason I ask is becasue during testing it looks like it does not get used in the email that was sent.

TIA

It is not required...code hacks for removing it from the subscribe.cgi file has been discussed in the Links 2.0 Customization Forum.

Thanks for the reply. I'll K.I.S.S and just remove the Name field from the form. Thats the answer I was hoping for.

Thanks!

Uh...that is not good enough since the subscribe.cgi builds the email database file in the following format:

username|email@domain.com

If you remove the name field in your email template files, then you will get error messages. What you could do is add a hidden field:



if you want to KISS it.

Thank you Eliot for pointing that out.

You're welcome.
