Missing Field Names in Profile Setup
August 17, 2008, 04:31:15 pm
When trying to set up additional fields in a profile, there seems to be missing elements in the drop-down list for fieldnames.  For example, the list presented for Individuals ends at "Middle Name" and does not include "email" as a field name.  The list presented for Contacts does not include First Name or Last Name.

I may be missing a newly-introduced distinction between Contacts and Individuals ("Contacts" was not presented as Field Name type in CiviCRM 2.0).  If I am, please tell me.

Here is the section of the page source that specifies the drop-down items for Contacts and Individuals:

  <div class="form-item">
            <dl>
        <dt><label>Field Name</label></dt><dd>&nbsp;<script type="text/javascript">

Yes. This is newly added feature in v2.1.  We have moved all common fields of Individual, Household and Organization to  "Contact" fields.
