I am using NB for a small Australian political party. We have to collect name and address date exactly as it is listed in the electoral role. The three line address is no use and we need to collect the middle name. We have a free (volunteer) sign up page with our custom fields. Now I have do do it all again for the donation(paid membership) page with slightly differently named fields. This is crazy! Is there a better way to do this. I will have three sets of addresses. Imported, signup and donation.
Hey Steven,
The liquid calls used to bring in custom fields are different on signup/join pages as compared to other pages. All you have to do is add the prefix "signup." to your existing liquid calls on the signup page to make them work on other pagetypes. This is explained in our how-to on custom fields - from the doc:
"Note that the signup prefix before "custom_values" is not required on signup forms because the primary object on such a page is the signup itself. It is always needed in code to display multiple choice options. Custom people fields on all other page types require the signup prefix."
Hope that helps!
