Question:
How to get rid of creating duplicate profiles?
Product:
Wix Editor
What are you trying to achieve:
Linking registration data to the user profile - these are two different forms
What have you already tried:
Collections, buttons
Additional information:
The problem is this:
I have two forms. The first one is a registration form, the second one with user details. The data should be in ONE row in the target collection and then as one user profile on the repeater site. But the profile is duplicated and also the collection stores data in two lines:
The first is from the registration, the second from the second form. Simple for some, but I’ve been dealing with this for a few months now… 
If you are using Wix forms it will always save the data in separate collections.
You would need to code a solution in order to achieve what you are looking for.
Thanks for the info, I already found that out too and was advised to create my own forms. Even though I already have them, there is still no ‘merging’ of data. This is important for one simple reason: the ability to edit your own profile or delete it. Nothing complicated, yet I have a big problem with it…
Since the database collection was created by the Wix Forms app, they would not be able to edit anything from either database. It is for Admin only.
You can manually export both databases ----- upload the information into one single database and then with a little code logic you can allow them to edit their own “profile” data.
My tutorial can help you with the code part …
