Description

When not setting either a Pre-Fill value or a Pre-Fill FEUser field, no marker will be generated for the Field record.

This is problematic as it is then no longer possible to pre-fill the field via TypoScript.
When setting a Pre-Fill value, so that a marker is generated, the TypoScript values are ignored as an earlier pre-fill solution will succeed (inserting the one set in the content element).

The simple way around it, is to define an own variable name for the Field record.

Seems like this is even more troublesome than I originally anticipated. The IDs that are generated for the form fields all look like this powermail_field_
And all labels look like <label for="powermail_field_">. So they all point at the same form element. :(

After digging a little into the whole marker generating process, I realized what the issue is.

All new Fields would have working markers, but all my old fields wouldn't.

I assume that's because the old fields were not generated with Powermail 2.0 and never had a marker field or something like that. Now I'm just re-saving all my markers and it seems to work fine...

I didn't. Thanks for pointing this out. I may have experienced the same issue, but I'm not sure anymore.
