Error Message Not Visible
-
My sign up form has a dozen or so groups the user can select from. This means that the “submit” button is not on the same page as the header.
If the user enters e.g. nothing or “X” for the email address, or enters an email address that is already subscribed and clicks the “Subscribe” button, nothing appears to happen.
Likewise if they omit a required field (Email and First Name) currently. The error message one can only find by scrolling up is not particularly grammatically valid:
» You must fill in Email Address. » You must fill in First Name.
Since I have both mail merge tags and groups, another odd thing happens the “* = required field” message is in the middle of the page.
My suggestion is that the error message either float over the page OR that the view be moved to where the message is so they can see it (or move the message where the submit button is).
If you want to see it in action go here:
