    Hi Guys,

    In relation to my last question.  I see that the data does export in separate fields however when I integrate with Zapier it shows as one field.  If this a question for them?

    Unfortunately it is not possible to split the Full Name field into separate fields with the Zapier integration. A possible workaround would be to use two plain text-boxes and label them as First Name and Last Name fields.

    This is a real pain.  The user interface on the full name is really nice.  Is there a way to recreates the "full name" look and feel while having two separate fields?

    You can shrink the two fields together and use css to modify their appearance and make them similar to the Full Name field.

    1. Add a text field as the label.

    2. Shrink the two text-boxes.

    3. Add sub-labels "First" and "Last"

    4. Then inject the custom css below. 

    #id_392 {

        padding-right: 0px;

    }

    #id_393 {

        padding-left: 0px;

    }

    #input_393, #input_392 {

        width: 150px;

     

    }

    The field should now look like the screenshot below.

    This is brilliant.  Thanks.  It goes a bit strange when the screen size changes though

    The full name version says nice an compact - http://snag.gy/sRtmO.jpg

    Maybe I am better to just split it?

    You can inject the additional code below to make the field responsive on mobile:

    @media only screen and (max-width: 500px){

    #id_394 {

        margin-top: 0px;

        margin-bottom: 0px;

        padding-top: 0px;

        padding-bottom: 0px;

    }

    #id_394 p{

        margin: 0px;

    }

    #id_392, #id_393 {

        padding-right: 0px;

        padding-top: 0px;

        padding-bottom: 0px;

        margin-top: 0px;

        width: 200px;

    }#id_392{width:190px}
