How do I move Name to top of subscribe form?

ℹ️ Support
1

I have searched for 3 days on how to move my “first name” attribute to the top of the subscribe form. It sits under the confirm email and it looks really bad! If anyone can help, I would so appreciate it!
Thank you!!!

I edited the subscribelib2.php function ListAttributes(…) function to display my name attribute above the emails and then display other contact information below those emails. You can check the page out by going to https://www.sudburyminutemen.org/lists/?p=subscribe&id=1. You can check out my code for ListAttributes function. I have commented the section for my Name attribute above the emails and the section for all other attributes below the emails. You might need to substitute your specific attribute names.

Thank you so much mslamkin. Your subscribe form is great! I’ll check it out when I get on my computer.

I realize that you won’t see the revised subscribelib2.php when you view the source of my subscribe page. Not sure how to share the code with you or others. I know there was one other person who asked a similar question a while ago. Is there a way to share the code with others besides copying the entire file in this forum?

Here is the modified ListAttributes function in subscribelib2.php that I use so that my subscribe page has the subscriber’s Name above the email address and confirmation email address. The other subscriber attributes are listed below the cofirmation email address. The choice of html vs text format is placed below these other attributes. What’s important is to determine the $attr[‘name’].

function ListAttributes($attributes, $attributedata, $htmlchoice = 0, $userid = 0, $emaildoubleentry = ‘no’)
{
global $strPreferHTMLEmail, $strPreferTextEmail,
$strEmail, $tables, $table_prefix, $strPreferredFormat, $strText, $strHTML;
/* if (!sizeof($attributes)) {
return “No attributes have been defined for this page”;
}
*/

$data = array();
$current = Sql_Fetch_array_Query(“select * from {$GLOBALS[‘tables’][‘user’]} where id = $userid”);
$datareq = Sql_Query(“select * from {$GLOBALS[‘tables’][‘user_attribute’]} where userid = $userid”);
while ($row = Sql_Fetch_Array($datareq)) {
$data[$row[‘attributeid’]] = $row[‘value’];
}

    $email = obfuscateEmailAddress($current['email']);
    $htmlemail = $current['htmlemail'];
    // override with posted info
    foreach ($current as $key => $val) {
        if (isset($_POST[$key]) && $key != 'password') {
            $current[$key] = $val;
        }
    }
} else {
    if (isset($_REQUEST['email'])) {
        $email = stripslashes($_REQUEST['email']);
    } else {
        $email = '';
    }
    if (isset($_POST['htmlemail'])) {
        $htmlemail = $_POST['htmlemail'];
	} elseif (!isset($_POST["subscribe"]) && isset($_GET['htmlemail']) && in_array($_GET['htmlemail'], [1,0])) {
  		$htmlemail = $_GET["htmlemail"];
    }

    $current = array();
