Hello,

I’m trying to implement a comment form on my site and when I test a comment submission, I get an “Invalid GET data”. After doing several Google searches, I’m stumped.

This is the code for my form:

<form class="contact">
          {exp:comment:form channel="news" preview="news/preview"}
          <div class="name-input">
  <label>My name is:</label>
   <input id="name" name="Name" value="{name}" type="text" class="name">
         </div>
         
         <div class="name-input lastinput">
   <label>Email me at:</label>
   <input id="email" name="Email" value="{email}" type="email"  class="name">
         </div>
         <div class="message-bg">
         <label>I wanted to say:</label>
  <textarea name="comment" class="message">{comment}</textarea>
        </div>
  <input type="submit" class="submit" name="submit" value="Submit"></input>
 {/exp:comment:form}
  </form>

It’s spitting out a crazy URL after submission. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance!

Hi Cowdrey,

As I can see you are using <form></form> HTML tag which isn’t required here. Check the channel preferences for the comment.

Hope it would help you.

Best Regards,

The {exp:comment:form} creates the <form> tags for you. If you use Chrome, you can open up the Developer Tools ‘View > Developer” to get more information about your page and help you track down any errors. Other browsers also have debugging consoles.

That did the trick!

Thank you all!
