'Name format for children' for 'users' with a different parent than default

[cb2004]

So, I followed the steps here to have users in a different parent:

https://processwire.com/blog/posts/processwire-core-updates-2.5.14/#multiple-templates-or-parents-for-users

This is working great, however when an editor adds a new user to '/members/', I don't want them to have to enter a 'Name'. This is completely irrelevant to the system I am building and will just require an email, so I was going to populate the name from the ID, or the email address entered havent decided yet as its not important, people will login on the frontend with their email. The trouble is, if I populate 'Name format for children' in the parent template nothing works when I go to add a new member, it goes to a 404. Is there any way to skip the adding of a name here?

Cheers.

@cb2004 Hi, I recommend adding your case to the GutHub issue so that it gets more highlight this way. Could you please do that?
