Autofill name

    I am using the Registrations for the Events Calendar as well as the Participants Database plugins. I have enabled the function to sync the WP users and Participants Database entries. I would like to be able to have the Registrations sign up form pull in the First and Last names from the WP users or Participants Database. Is there any option for this, or perhaps a way to modify the form?

    I tried to search for any similar questions, but the hits I got were from 6-7 years ago, with one reply indicating this was a feature being considered for the future.

    Hey Dean,

    By default for logged-in users the form will prefill first names, last names, and email addresses when using the default form fields for this information. Sounds like this isn’t the case for you.

    If you temporarily disable any plugins that might modify how users are handled does the form prefill as expected? Do you have a link to the page that has the registration form on it?

    I might be able to help you figure out a workaround either way but wanted to make sure that we could pinpoint the issue.

    Thank you for the reply! I thought I had seen somewhere that it would autofill, but couldn’t find it when looking around. I only have a couple of plugins, so I will try that first. I will also verify that the Participants Database plugin is actually creating/linking the WordPress user account.

    OK – it is now working. I have a brand new site, and thought that upon registration the user would be automatically logged in – that didn’t happen. Fixed that and the fields are now populated. Thank you!

    That’s great to hear! Glad you could get that working. Let me know if you need anything else.
