I am using a profile that includes first and last name on a paid event sign up page. The payment processor is Pay Pal Pro.  ( the end-user can also choose to pay later. )  This results in the end-user having to type their first and last name twice: once for the profile, and again for the billing.

Is there way to make things easier for the end-user? And make sure I get their name for the event signup?

Thanks,
Sarah

I updated the template fiile:  CRM/Event/Form/Registration/Register.tpl

I added my code just after the line:    {if $paidEvent}

Are the field ids that I am looking for consistent across versions and installations?   The code below works in my environments ( 2.2.8 and 3.0.1)

<span id="askToDuplicate"> &nbsp; </span>

<script type="text/javascript" >
{literal}
function duplicateNameForBilling(form){

   if(document.getElementById("first_name")){ document.getElementById("billing_first_name").value = document.getElementById("first_name").value;  }
   if(document.getElementById("middle_name")){ document.getElementById("billing_middle_name").value = document.getElementById("middle_name").value; }
   if(document.getElementById("last_name")){ document.getElementById("billing_last_name").value = document.getElementById("last_name").value; }
 
   if(document.getElementById("street_address-1")){ document.getElementById("billing_street_address-5").value = document.getElementById("street_address-1").value; }
   if(document.getElementById("city-1")){ document.getElementById("billing_city-5").value = document.getElementById("city-1").value; }
   if(document.getElementById("state_province-1")){ document.getElementById("billing_state_province_id-5").value = document.getElementById("state_province-1").value; }
   if(document.getElementById("postal_code-1")){ document.getElementById("billing_postal_code-5").value = document.getElementById("postal_code-1").value; }
   if(document.getElementById("country-1")){ document.getElementById("billing_country_id-5").value = document.getElementById("country-1").value; }
}

if(document.getElementById("first_name")){
   document.getElementById("askToDuplicate").innerHTML = "<input type='radio' onClick='duplicateNameForBilling(form)' value='yes' name='Duplicate'>Fill in if above is also the billing name and address on the credit card";
}
