How do I keep my name and email from showing up in a form?

    I inserted a feedback form on my email list opt-in page and in the text box where the user is supposed to enter their name and email, MY information is displayed there. I’ve looked everywhere on wordpress for how to keep any info from being displayed (especially my own), and even tried entering my own place-holder text, but nothing is working.

    I also tried deleting the form, updating the page, and re-inserting a new form just like it, but that also did not work.

    Any ideas on how to get my info removed from the “blanks”?

    It’s a cookie issue. Log out and it will be gone. WordPress.com uses cookies to keep track of commenters so if someone makes a comment on your blog, the next time they come to your blog, unless they have cleared their cookies, WordPress.com will recognize them and complete the details for them. No one else will be able to view those details in comment boxes or in contact forms. The next person who comments will see blank fields. Commenters will not see each others details.

    While we are at it the same can be said about the Admin [edit] link. It’s only for your convenience and only you can see it and use it while you are logged in.
