Using a Username as Email

Hi Jeff,

My register page is currently set up so that the Username field is hidden:

<p style="display: none;">
			<label type="hidden" for="user_login">Email Address</label>
			<input type="hidden" name="user_login" id="user_login" class="input" value="" size="20">
		</p>

I’ve tried to add the form to another page, but somehow the Username field is reappearing. Then when I hide it, I receive an error message saying the field requires some input.

I understand that TML pulls forms depending on what page the code is on i.e. Register page automatically calls registerform etc. and by default it will call the login form.

I’ve used [theme-my-login default_action=”register” register_template=”register-form.php”] to insert the form on a modal window and it’s all working fine except that the ‘Username’ field is there.

Are you able to explain why this is happening?

Many thanks
P
