Missing Username form field at initial admin account registration

Hey Marcus and Dave!!

Hope you are all good, How have I managed to do this?

I am just tinkering with elgg on my local machine, mac os 10.5 with mamp which I have used to test elgg stuff on fine before.

After 3 clean installs (ie: re-downloading elgg package each time and installing in a different location with a different database), I get the initial registration form but it is missing the fields for 'display name', 'email address', username (see attached image) and if I click to the home page the login form is also missing the 'username' field.

elp!

  • Can you go to your Registration page, find the source ("View File Source" in Firefox after right-click), and cut & paste here the lines between  <!-- canvas --> and <!-- /#layout_canvas --> ?

    This way we can see what's coming to the page.

  • i have got this too and i have no idea what's going on..

    Shillo - this is what i have got

    <!-- canvas -->
    <div id="layout_canvas">

    <!-- left sidebar -->
    <div id="two_column_left_sidebar">



    <div id="login-box">
    <h2>Log in</h2>
    <form action="http://localhost/freemeditate15/action/login" method="POST" >
    <input type="hidden" name="__elgg_token" value="171100738120d310224870f0369c4651" /> <input type="hidden" name="__elgg_ts" value="1247993448" /> <p class="loginbox"><label>Username<br /></label><br /><label>Password<br />
    <input type="password" name="password" value="" class="login-textarea" /> </label><br /><input name="" type="submit" class="submit_button" value="Log in" /> <div id="persistent_login"><label><input type="checkbox" name="persistent" value="true" />Remember me</label></div></p><p class="loginbox"><a href="http://localhost/freemeditate15/account/register.php">Register</a&gt; | <a href="http://localhost/freemeditate15/account/forgotten_password.php">Lost password</a></p></form>
    </div>
    </div><!-- /two_column_left_sidebar -->

    <!-- main content -->
    <div id="two_column_left_sidebar_maincontent">

    <div id="content_area_user_title"><h2>Latest activity</h2></div>
    </div><!-- /two_column_left_sidebar_maincontent -->


    <div class="clearfloat"></div>
    </div><!-- /#layout_canvas -->

  • @ sunirmalya

    That looks like your login page source. The discussion is about the Resitration page. :)

  • yes i am sorry you are right - mine is at the first admin registration after the build..
