    I’m back. :)

    In using Form, if I didn’t want certain parts of the Form to display, can I use shortcode customizations like: addr_format=’%line1% %line2% %city%, %state% %zipcode%’ to accomplish this? I tried, didn’t work, but thought I’d ask.

    Reason I ask, people are a little confused that, as a totally local organization, we ask for the country and Lat/Long in the address. If they ask why Lat/Long, I say ‘give me a minute…’ OK, lame joke. :)

    Anyway, sure, I can tell them to ignore it, but it makes the process look less than smooth.

    Guidance? Thanks.

    How about just a bit of CSS magic to make them disappear instead?

    #cn-form div.form-field .address-country {
    display: none !important;
}
#cn-form div.form-field .address-geo {
    display: none !important;
}

    Yep. That worked, except I couldn’t figure our how to do the same with ‘Department’ without taking the entire Organization box with it?

    Yeah, that is a bit more difficult to get rid of…

    #cn-org-unit label:nth-of-type(2) {
    display: none !important;
}

    That should do it but is not IE8 or less friendly; meaning it will not work.

    Interesting. Hmm, new code for me. Never tried that. Worked. btw, ie8 and less is only 4.9% of our traffic, those folks can deal with it.

    Thanks!

    Pretty cool CSS3 trick and it is very versatile which can make it a bit hard to understand.
