 * Hey everyone,
 * I can’t submit any Comments on our Blog ([http://blog.mila.com](http://blog.mila.com)).
   If i fill out the form and click “Submit”, theres this error message:
 * > ERROR: please fill the required fields (name, email).
 * But it makes no sense, since i filled out all the required fields. I don’t know
   where to look in the code and i’m a beginner at php and all that stuff..Can someone
   help?

 * i didn’t see or find a plugin (except contact form 7, but i don’t know how and
   where it is linked to the comments, if it is linked at all).
 * here is the link for the comments.php file: [http://pastebin.com/ZYKBKh6n](http://pastebin.com/ZYKBKh6n)
   (
   we use a customized theme)
 * in case you need some other files, you can telll me (theres also some code in
   the single-post.php for displaying the comment form, but i don’t think that it
   is relevant for the problem)
 * greetings,
    thea

 * Hy Thea,
 * Try this:
 *     ```
       <div class="row">
                                                               <div class="col-xs-12 col-sm-12 col-md-4">

                                                                                       <input name="author" type="text" class="form-control" id="author">
                                                                               </div>

                                                                       <div class="col-xs-12 col-sm-12 col-md-4">
                                                                               <div class="form-group">

                                                                                       <input name="email" type="email" class="form-control" id="email">

                                                                       </div>
   
                                                                       <div class="col-xs-12 col-sm-12 col-md-4">
                                                                               <div class="form-group">
                                                                                       <label for="Website">Website</label>
                                                                                       <input name="url" type="url" class="form-control" id="url">
                                                                               </div>
                                                                       </div>
                                                               </div>
       ```
   
 * I have changed the id of the name field to author.
    i also added a name attribute
   to all three fields.
 * Let me know if that doesn’t work, i will come up with something else.
 * Kind regards,
 * Larsen
