I’m using a SAEF full of custom fields. Two of the custom fields are “first_name” and “last__name” which will not be the name of the author himself.

What I’d LIKE to do, if it’s possible, is prevent the author of the entry from having to enter a title. After the form is filled in, I’d like for the title to equal “{first_name} {last_name}”.

I’ve tried this:

<input type="hidden" name="title" id="title" value="{first_name} {last_name}">

However, that didn’t work. Is there a way to make it work?
