I get this error attached to the "Field Label" field when I try to create different sets of "Sponsorship" levels in separate price sets for different events.

Does the name of a price field have to be unique across all price sets? And WHY?

can you file an issue. We'll fix this for 2.2. It should not allow the same label in the same price set. Same label across multiple price sets should be fine

a small patch for 2.1 / 2.2 is here: (line numbers are from 2.2)

Code: [Select]

svn diff CRM/Price/Form/Field.php

Yes, that's fixed the problem. Thank you! I assume the check for duplicates within the price set will have to be re-added eventually?

And yes, I'll file a bug... going to try to find my way around the issue tracker.
