I've installed the latest UserForm with SS 2.3.3.

Everything works great, including email and submissions.

However, SS is outputting the following for every form field:

<h2 class=" FormHeading" id="Form_Form_EditableFormHeading8" name="EditableFormHeading8">Your Email Address</h2>

<div id="EditableEmailField7" class="field email requiredField"><label class="left" for="Form_Form_EditableEmailField7">EditableEmailField7</label><div class="middleColumn"><input type="text" class="text requiredField" id="Form_Form_EditableEmailField7" name="EditableEmailField7" value="" /></div></div>

The problem is in that second bit... there's a label above each field like "EditableEmailField7"... I don't need this nor do I see a way to edit it in the Form editor. How can I remove this? Is there simply a template?

Well... this might be the fix.

In /sapphire/forms/FormField.php, within the function FieldHolder(), I commented out the following line:

/* $titleBlock = (!empty($Title)) ? "<label class=\"left\" for=\"{$this->id()}\">$Title</label>" : ""; */

Nobody else seems to have had this problem, though. I wonder why my install was screwy in this regard? Anyway, this got rid of the unnecessary labels.

Nope, that won't work. It kills all of the labels in the CMS as well. Why are these rendering out in the form's html?? How can I remove these junk labels?

Here's a screenshot. Hideous, no?
