Thanks Eileen,

So v4.2 will allow any address to be populated from any other, not just "same as billing address".  See my scenario in above post.

Thanks again!

Craig

Ahhh.. so could someone assist with my original question - quoted here for convenience...  Thanks!

Seeking assistance....

I used this code:
http://wiki.civicrm.org/confluence/display/CRMDOC41/Add+'Same+as+billing+address'+button+for+convenience

to populate from onbehalf of organization during membership signup to an additonal profile for the primary contact, on the same signup page.

However, it is not working.  When I check the box to copy the address info, it does nothing.

For this scenario, the fields are a little different (onbehalf_organization_name, for instance) and am copying it to individual's work address fields (which end in "-2), but I think it should still work.

In my case, do I have more than one "form" on the page and need to distinguish that in the code perhaps?

Any assistance from you gurus would be greatly appreciated!

Craig

You should see the feature automagically if ...
1. You've enabled a payment processor for your contribution page that collects billing address (e.g. PayPal Pro, Auth.net ...)
2. You've include a profile in the contribution page the collects address info (i.e. to request mailing address, home address etc.)

I've configured a page on the public demo just now that does this - so if you jump on it before demo is reset you can see it:
http://drupal.demo.civicrm.org/civicrm/contribute/transact?reset=1&id=1

Just a note of what I'm getting here on this subject, on a test domain, 4.2 Beta 3.

Front End:
- Sometimes the State field still doesn't populate. Even if the Country field is selected above it in the first profile - as explained earlier in this thread. Only way to populate it is to click the checkbox on and off a few times. Nobody is going to do that filing out a donation form.
- After enabling the Pay Later option in the back end, the "Billing Address is same as above" checkbox disappears from the front end.

Back End:
-On an arbitrary contribution form, filling out the Amounts section is a pain. It saves the inputs sporadically. Meaning, sometimes it'll save what you input into the fields, and sometimes it won't. Also, it does not save at all unless you have both the Contribution Label and the Amount sides filled out --something that's annoying because it shows up looking confusing on the front end.

Just my 2cents. Sorry I don't have any fixes for these.


 

Are you seeing any Javascript errors reported?

Would be helpful if you could replicate your setup and the problem behavior on our 4.2 public demo.
