Description
I installed Name module to a clean D7 built on 2009-Nov-03. I added a name field "Name: John Doe" to a new content type. However, "Add new content" page does not show the form for entering Name. It just shows a blank space. Could you please check the module on the latest version of D7?
#1
Add new page is giving the following warning, so they may be related:
Notice: Undefined index: render element in theme() (line 803 of /home/d7/public_html/includes/theme.inc).
Notice: Undefined index: #children in theme_form_element() (line 2771 of /home/d7/public_html/includes/form.inc).

Sorry, I didn't realise that the dev snapshot was exposed. It was based on a Drupal version from early October. I'm majorly refactoring it before creating an "official" dev release, hopefully in about two weeks or so.
There have been some big general changes in the Drupal API, so some errors are likely in this version. I will close this issue when the release is released properly as a warning for others.
#3
Is there any updates on the new version?
#4
It looks like profile hasn't made it, so my personal interest in this has dropped accordingly. With a likely release date for Drupal early next year (March?), I'll update this then. We threw the standard Drupal profile module about 2 months back and are using a fully customizable hacked version. The simple field definitions / implementations are a dream and we'll probably use this on all of our sites untill Drupal 8 now.
FYI, I've let the guys running the Drupal 5 cck name field that they can have the namespace if they like, but considering that they haven't ported to Drupal 6 yet, I don't think that this will happen.

Last time I checked, dynamic columns were still very unstable. Cleaned up the module and backported to Drupal 6. Time permitting, I re-investigate after each major D7 release (alpha-2, beta-1, etc).
If by rc-1 the column structure is unstable, I may have to resort to having columns varchar(255) for all columns, both inactive and active components. That's a lot of potential NULL fields, but the overhead is fairly minor (4 char + any index related stuff)
