What is your software version?
What is your server: Linux or Windows?
Switch to the default theme and check whether the issue persists.

Bhavika, how did you achieve that look of the join page?
I don't see any plugin for that in your admin panel.

I've also encountered this bug and it definitely has something to do with fake fields in Registration form. It starts with not really random {display:none} and {display:block} classes for fake and real fields and it can be fixed in \ow_system_plugins\base\controllers\join.php file replacing (generated classes are sometimes the same for different fields):
$question['trClass'] = uniqid('ow_'.rand(0, 99999999999));
line (696, BASE_CTRL_Join::addFakeQuestions) to:
$question['trClass'] = uniqid('ow_'.rand(0, 99999999999)).$i;
But the problem lies much deeper in rendering 'cause there were moments when some registration fields of one type were shown as another filed from the same form or not present in source code at all - maybe some collision in session data on form generation. Hope Oxwall Team digs more into it.

The problem with his join form is that even if drag and drop the question from one section to another the join form does not respond and the question stays in the section. He obviously did some modifications, which is why I asked to revert the changes.

I've expirienced this bug using default theme even prior to 1.7.2 update (on win and lixux dev servers). It is definitely Oxwall bug, here are some related reports:http://www.oxwall.org/forum/topic/31036

The thing is that it is not really so permanent to discover it, but unfortunately it exists.
I'll try to look into it again and post some details for you.

Well, the files were overwritten, which is why the modifications you did, are gone.
I'm going to mark this thread as Solved then.
