[Solved] extra field in widget, should be hidden?

I'm just beginning to play with this so perhaps there's something I'm missing...

There is an "extra" text box in the widget signup below the email addy, right sidebar here:

http://volks-web.net/

Viewing the source, I see


<code><div id="newsletters-newsletters-2list-holder" class=" newsletters-fieldholder newsletters-fieldholder-hidden hidden list"><div class="form-group"><input type="hidden" name="list_id[]" value="1" /></div></div></code>

Why is this displaying with type="hidden"?  Do I need to do a display:none in the css on this div?  And if so, why?  Hate to start doing these sort of hacks out of the gate.

Thanks!

    Yes, the extra text field in the subscribe widget should be hidden.

    It is a honeypot field to prevent spam bots from submitting the form.

    It is most likely that not all styles are loading.

    Please go to Newsletters > Configuration > General > Theme, Scripts & Custom CSS and ensure that all Styles are tickec/checked and then save the stetings.

    We've made improvements to this field with an inline display:none; in our latest development as well.

    Let me know if that resolves the problem for you.
