   Is there any easy way to reverse the name field order - i.e. Last-First instead of First-Last?

   The easiest way, you can edit "includes/language.php" file, search around line 208 for this code:

   $languages['name_first']			= 'First';
   $languages['name_middle']			= 'Middle';
   $languages['name_last']				= 'Last';
   $languages['name_title']			= 'Title';
   $languages['name_suffix']			= 'Suffix';

   change it to become:
   

   $languages['name_first']			= 'Last';
   $languages['name_middle']			= 'Middle';
   $languages['name_last']				= 'First';
   $languages['name_title']			= 'Title';
   $languages['name_suffix']			= 'Suffix';

   Thank you. This re-orders the field on the published form (but not on the edit form panel)
   Can you tell me where to change the name field widths please? I found lines around line 362 in view.css which shows first/middle 23% and last 30% but changing here seems to make no difference.

   Thanks

   The field re-orders only can be applied on published forms indeed.
   And to change name field width, you need to edit include/view-functions.php file. Go to line 2260 and you will see these codes :

   $element_markup = <<<EOT
   		<li id="li_{$element->id}" {$li_style} {$li_class}>
   		<span class="description">{$element->title} {$span_required}</span>
   		<span class="simple_name_1">
   			<input id="element_{$element->id}_1" name="element_{$element->id}_1" {$attr_readonly} type="text" class="element text" maxlength="255" size="8" value="{$default_value_1}" />
   			<label for="element_{$element->id}_1">{$mf_lang['name_first']}</label>
   		</span>
   		<span class="simple_name_2">
   			<input id="element_{$element->id}_2" name="element_{$element->id}_2" {$attr_readonly} type="text" class="element text" maxlength="255" size="14" value="{$default_value_2}" />
   			<label for="element_{$element->id}_2">{$mf_lang['name_last']}</label>
   		</span>{$guidelines} {$error_message}
   		</li>
   EOT;

   Then you can change the "size" value on those fields.
