  **The Problem**
  
  When you are logged in to CiviCRM, ALL public-facing pages (event registration, contributions, etc.) will assume that you're the logged-in person. There's a warning on the page with a link to let you register/contribute as someone else (see screenshot below).
  
  **Preventing this**
  
  All registrations/contributions should be added via the back-office screens, not public screens. If you need a public screen, use the link circled below.
  
  Furthermore, the excellent [No Overwrite](https://civicrm.org/extensions/no-overwrite) extension should be installed wherever a) it's possible that someone might overwrite another record, and b) you don't need to permit visitors to overwrite their name during registration/contribution.
  
  **Fixing After it's Happened**
  
  This must be fixed by hand.
  
  * Figure out all the information on the shared contact that belongs to the new person. You can figure this out by looking at the public-facing page. Any fields on that page are most likely overwritten.
  * Put the fields (name, etc.) back the way they were before the bad transaction. If you're not sure, you may want to load a backup of your database on to a test server to compare side-by-side.
  * Create a new record (if necessary) for the new contact and populate it with their info.
  * Additionally, this record will have one or more contribution/membership/participant/activity records associated with the transaction.
  * If you **have** back-end access to the database, change the contribution/membership/participant/activity records so the `contact_id` is changed to the new contact.
  * If you **don't have** back-end access, you'll need to delete the transaction and do it again (don't forget to refund the money before charging again, if applicable).
  * If the contact was supposed to be added to a group based on a profile in the page, don't forget to add them (and potentially remove it from the mixed contact).
