Redundant name field automatically added to profile - how to get rid of it?
June 26, 2010, 09:12:03 am
I built a profile for the purpose of displaying a membership directory. I added the "First Name" and "Last Name" fields to the profile, which display properly.

The problem is that CiviCRM is automatically adding another field ("Name") that I don't want. It is redundant and I want to get rid of it.

Directory listing with redundant name field on the left:

Thanks,
