There has been a change in the workshop event creation form and how it's processed. In the past the Event Contact details were not replaced by the Event Manager details when saving the event. Current behavior is that even when the details are provided, the Event Manager details are replaced for Name and Email (but not phone number).

This new behavior requires editing the event a 2nd time to update those two fields. I understand that the fields are now mandatory and the logic is probably populating the field with the default values to avoid the error. However, the desired behavior should be such that if the fields are pre-populated and not empty, the details should remain but if the fields are empty THEN the Event Manager details will be populated.

Current behavior is frustrating and creates unnecessary editing.
