Users have now requested that these forms auto-populate with technician-specific data, including names, certification numbers, email addresses, etc., so that they don't have to input those details every time they submit. Can GF pull this info from a WP user profile and inject it into each form? Or perhaps accomplish this another way?</p> <p>I'm not a programmer, so if GF is simple, yet powerful, enough to handle this project, I'd like to get a developer's license and use it for several other sites as well.

This is what I have so far.</p> <p>1. Using Gravity Forms User Registration Add-On to replace default wordpress register function. (works great)</p> <p>2. Created a register form that gets the info that I want to populate in another form. (<a href="http://www.pairadicetravel.com/contact-us/" rel="nofollow">http://www.pairadicetravel.com/contact-us/</a>) Works fine.</p> <p>3. In the reservation form, I've added all the parameter names to the fields that will be pre-populated. Those names match the names of the same fields from User Meta. </p> <p><a href="https://www.evernote.com/shard/s1/sh/caaccf36-d325-4d25-ab94-cfc598c4a631/6e81d1d1cfc8fada52080047aa58c58e/deep/0/Screenshot%202/19/13%209:55%20AM.jpg" rel="nofollow">https://www.evernote.com/shard/s1/sh/caaccf36-d325-4d25-ab94-cfc598c4a631/6e81d1d1cfc8fada52080047aa58c58e/deep/0/Screenshot%202/19/13%209:55%20AM.jpg</a><br /> <a href="https://www.evernote.com/shard/s1/sh/52c1f0b6-8037-4550-a9f2-f8e678757a71/0c325ad929b4e4a0581c93f7e60ffeb8/deep/0/Screenshot%202/19/13%209:54%20AM.jpg" rel="nofollow">https://www.evernote.com/shard/s1/sh/52c1f0b6-8037-4550-a9f2-f8e678757a71/0c325ad929b4e4a0581c93f7e60ffeb8/deep/0/Screenshot%202/19/13%209:54%20AM.jpg</a></p> <p>What I want to happen is once the user registers and provides the needed information about their room preferences, it's stored on their profile. It's currently doing this step. Next once that user logs into the site to make a reservation that meta information is populated into the form. I've tried going through the help pages, but get lost on the parameter names. Can this be done by shortcode? </p> <p>Thanks. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/populate-dynamically-when-form-sent#post-156448 Thu, 28 Feb 2013 02:28:08 +0000 groupewibi 156448@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Dear all, </p> <p>I trying to affect a user card member using the biggest value found on the user_meta table sor subscribers.
