I wish a One Click Registration (enhanced integration with Joomla core users).
Let's say I have a private website accessible by USER/PASS only. It's seems silly to:
-require login to the site
-require details to register for event
I'd be nice if the DT REGISTER would automatically copy the details of the logged in Joomla core user.
// Get the user.
$user =& JFactory::getUser();
// Must be a registered user.
if ($user->guest) {
echo "<p>You must login to register.</p>";
} else {
list($name_first,$name_last) = explode(' ', $user->name);
$fname = $name_first;
$lname = $name_last;
$email = {$user->email};
}
I would like to second that request. I've been successfully using DT Register for over a year now and that's the most common complaint I get -- they have to re-type in basic information.
In my situation, people are registering for two (or more) events a week, but each event means they type in the info (over and over). If it's a one-off or once a month thing, not too big of a deal, but if they're registering for events twice a week or more, you can imagine how cumbersome it'd be.
As my site also incorporates CC info, I couldn't make it all one-click, but just having fields pre-populated would be a big win.
soccerbum - if you are integrating with Community Builder or JomSocial, all of the basic info of the registration form will auto-populate from the profile fields.
