Basically, try it just as you expected it to work. Be sure to add the parameter name to be populated dynamically, and them pass it like so:</p> <pre><code>?color_choice=green</code></pre> <p>That will make green the selected value when the form loads. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/drop-down-dynamic-selection-not-dynamically-populating-a-form#post-75604 Sat, 15 Sep 2012 19:16:16 +0000 Chris Hajer 75604@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I have asked the developers for feedback on this one. I'm, not sure within Gravity Forms if there is a way to do this or not. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/drop-down-dynamic-selection-not-dynamically-populating-a-form#post-75303 Fri, 14 Sep 2012 07:17:31 +0000 zenyth 75303@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi everybody. After searching the forum I found a lot of answers about dynamically populating drop downs, but I can't found how to proceed for selection. I mean: I already have a gravity form populated by the standard editor. For example I already have a drop down ID_1, with a list of colors: red, blue, green. Default selected value is blue, but I'd like to be able to reach the form and add a different default selection by URL (i.e. adding ?default_color=green or something similar). Would it be possible?<br /> Kind regards. </p>
