In the email, the output is in the format: Firstname Lastname Firstname Lastname. As can be seen, both the first name and last name fields each outputs the full name.

I’m working with your awesome API for the plugin. Really useful! I’m trying to update a Name field.

Can you provide an example of how to construct correct entry meta data for the Name field that I could use for the update_form_entry() API method?

For simple text fields, this would work just fine:

$entry_meta = array(
				
				array(
					'name' => 'text-1',
					'value' => 'new value'
				)
);

Name fields, however, are more complex. I have to update something like this:

[meta_data] => Array
        (
            [name-1] => Array
                (
                    [id] => 436
                    [value] => Array
                        (
                            [first-name] => Anthony
                            [last-name] => Brooks
                        )

                )
...

I tried different tricks but sadly without success. First and last name went blank. To give you an example, this code snippet does not work:

array(
					'name' => 'name-1',
					'value' => array(
						'first-name' => 'new first name',
						'last-name' => 'new last name'
					)
				)

I also tried things like json_encode() and different names for keys (for example name-1-first-name). I’m running out of ideas. Could you help me out please?

Thanks a lot!

I’d like to use the Name Field, but I’ve noticed it doesn’t have the Element Label on it, and I need to do that. I need a proper name entered there, but it’s the Applicant’s Name the first time and the Supervisor’s Name the second time (these are examples).

Is there a way to accomplish this using the Name Field?

Thanks!

Plus: This plugin is really helpful. Thank you

Thanks for you help.
