Description
Without succes i have been searching to disable the phone and name field in the sign up block on my event node.
A sign up button only, similar to http://groups.drupal.org/node/19324 would be just fine.
How can i configure this?

See point #2 in the INSTALL.txt file.

Thanks, i kind of overlooked this file.
Despite that i have hardly any experience with php i want to give it a trie to remove the NAME and PHONE field.
I have read the instructions in the install file and the signup_form (theme) as well.
This leaves me with some questions though.
1.I'm a bit confused here by the words "entire function". Can i just copy everything from the signup_form into my
theme's template.php file?
2.Do i have to paste it at the top or the bottom of my theme's template.php file? Or does it make no difference.
3.So in function theme_signup_user_form($node) i rename theme_signup_user_form into
phptemplate_signup_user_form?
4.So now i'm left with this code. What do i alter?
Can i just remove the blocks with phone and name in it?
The words "DO NOT EDIT OR REMOVE" are not making me feel very secure :)
// If this function is providing any extra fields at all, the following
// line is required for form form to work -- DO NOT EDIT OR REMOVE.
$form['signup_form_data']['#tree'] = TRUE;
$form['signup_form_data']['Name'] = array(
'#type' => 'textfield',
'#title' => t('Name'),
'#size' => 40, '#maxlength' => 64,
'#required' => TRUE,
);
$form['signup_form_data']['Phone'] = array(
'#type' => 'textfield',
'#title' => t('Phone'),
'#size' => 40, '#maxlength' => 64,
);
// If the user is logged in, fill in their name by default.
if ($user->uid) {
$form['signup_form_data']['Name']['#default_value'] = $user->name;
}
return $form;
}
Thanks

(Side note: this whole thing is stupid and crazy, and should go away. See #29568: Flexible number and type of fields)
I guess you missed this in the comment above theme_signup_user_form():
So, all you need is to put this in template.php (and no, the order doesn't matter at all):
function phptemplate_signup_user_form($node) {return array();
}

p.s. If someone marks your support request "fixed", and you still have questions or can't get something working, you should set it back to "active". However, since I just answered your question, I'd set it back to "fixed" with this comment. ;) So, assuming this works for you, you don't have to reply at all nor change the status.

Derek,
Thank you very much.
It worked straight out of the box.

Automatically closed -- issue fixed for 2 weeks with no activity.

I've noticed that this work-around does not work with signup_status enabled, possibly because the function call has been co-opted or renamed. Any hints how to proceed without disabling signup_status?

It works fine. Of course, if you have the signup_status module enabled, and some options configured to appear on the signup form, those are *going* to appear on the signup form. That's obviously by design. ;) This support request is about hiding the custom fields like Phone and Name, and it works (I just re-tested to be sure) exactly as described here, even with signup_status enabled.
