I am still having this issue and it has caused a number of problems in our database. I did notice it only happens when I selected to have multiple participants in the event and on the include profile there is a participant profile along with an individual profile. Any ideas on what might be causing this? All of the strict rules in include more then just email, and it is currently still changing a person's name if they have the same email and not looking at the strict rule.

Actually I think it is only when I choose multiple participants that it seems to ignore the dedupe rules. I have another event that is similar with the exception that it does not allow multiple participants and that seems to work just fine.

I think multiple particpants might do things a wee bit differently since we wanted to allow the parent + child case of registration and reuse email address. My memory is a bit vague on this one

Is there anything I can do to make it look at any of the dedupe rules?

If i had to guess, this is a code change. If you can get your consultant / developer to investigate and check the code that would be great. They should ping us on irc if they need help getting started. Please do report back on your findings.

Well I am the developer, but I am not really sure where to start. Do you know where in the process of everything the dedupe rules are checked?

a quick look at the code:

CRM/Event/Form/Registration/Confirm.php,

function updateContactFields

might want to add some debug code to that function and see how it gets and assigns the various contact ids for the additional participants
