Confirmation Page Attendee Name is pulling wrong data

  • This is intentional. I think there’s a little confusion over the use of “Attendee.” The person who signs up will always be primary on the registration. The true “attendees” of the event are listed under that person’s name in the database in the serialized “attendees” field.

    It would be productive to think of the person’s name who signs in with name and address etc. as the Registrant (that’s how I’ve relabeled the order forms, etc. for my page). You could send a confirmation email with the attendees listed, but it would take modifying the code. It is meant to go to the registrant since presumably they paid.

    Thanks for your reply!

    In the case of our event the vast majority of Attendees are children so the person submitting the registration is usually the parent and not the Attendee…

    However we can work around this by providing tips up front to make sure they put the child’s name in FN, LN and asking for the Parent’s Name as a question.

    Thanks!
