      Description

      In this case any value in contact.display_name is replaced with the email address. (We don't mess up the existing first, middle, last name data - so the display name "cache" can be restored by re-saving the record.)

      Steps:

      • Created new event using sample template "Free Event with Online Registration"
      • Modified that event so no profile was used (only email address collected during registration)
      • Identify and existing contact who has first and last name, and grab their email address
      • log out
      • Register for the event using the copied existing contact email
      • log back in and look at Contact Summary for that contact - display name will be modified to be email address
