Please forgive me if this has been answered or if I am overlooking an obvious answer. I want to create a comment form, but I only want 1 field. The field will be a bid for a silent auction. So, once the person has registered with the site, they can then bid on each of the 20 or so items (each item is a blog post and the bids will show up in the comments). When I create the form with the one field, and make that field a single line of text, I hit submit and it gives me an error saying "Error: please type a comment." Is it possible to just have this one field, and that the one field is a single line of text? Thank you very much for this great plugin.

see your cforms Help page under "WP Comment Feature input fields":

To get it working:
1. Turn on the WP Comment feature for the given form. (Make sure it's the right one!), otherwise you won't see the above input fields in the [Field Type] select box.
2. Modify this form to include all the necessary (new) input fields, make them required or not, add regexp, anti SPAM fields or even custom err messages. All up to you. Or better yet, start with the built-in preset: "Advanced: WP comment…" form.

[...]

You can however use CSS to set display:none for all fields you don't want anyone to see.
