I’m currently trying to integrate wufoo ‘call me back’ form into my website. When the forms are filled in the data goes straight into my Capsule CRM and my Mailchimp account. I believe that I can only use the fancy pants ‘name’ field for it to work properly.

So….. here’s what I am trying to do: I want the form to look pretty and get all the fields the same width. So far I have managed to change the fancy pants ‘phone’ field so that it is 100% using custom css but for the life of me I can’t find out how to change the width of the fancy pants ‘name’ fields?

Can anyone help?

An example of the form can be seen here: http://covestudio.co.uk/category/advertising-photography-manchester/

@Amanda: It’s a bummer, but there’s no way to populate a name on another page after they’ve added their name on a previous page 🙁
If you were pushing the name to a separate form, you could use templating to do that, but it’s not possible within the same form. Check out more on templating here: http://help.wufoo.com/articles/en_US/SurveyMonkeyArticleType/Templating

@Wouter: Ahhh, good question! You can’t customise that extended format, but you could use the workaround I mentioned with the single line text fields. Just add a few more single line text fields: https://kanestanley.wufoo.com/forms/the-name-game/

Alternatively, you can just use the name field and when you go to look at the data, just create a report with a data grid widget. With the data grid widget you can choose exactly what fields show up in the widget. The name field will automatically split the name field into different fields. You can just choose to see the Last name and sort from there.

@Kurt: You won't lose any functionality by using those text fields instead of the custom name field. Apart from using two fields instead of one, it'll all be the same when you receive your entries. Even when you download!

Hi Kane,

We are using a multiple page form and I want to have the surveyee input their name on the first page, and then have it populate the entry onto subsequent pages.

It there a way to accomplish this?

Thank you Kane!

I still have a question about the Name Field:Is it also possible to customize the extended format? In my country lots of people have a last name with a prefix, and usual when we sort names in alphabetical order we use the last name without the prefix. So if i use the normal format (and people put their prefix and last name in the 'last name' field) I can't sort the entries by last name. If the extended format is customisable, I could make a format with first name, prefix and last name.

Would love to hear if that is possible.

Cool. What functionality do you lose by using text fields instead of the custom name field?

btw -We love wufoo and have used it to go completely online with registration forms for our small local cabana club. http://www.westgatecabana.org
