So your URL will look like:</p> <p><a href="http://mysite.com/form2/?fname=" rel="nofollow">http://mysite.com/form2/?fname=</a>{Name:1}&amp;job={Occupation:2} </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/dynamically-populate-a-second-page#post-318581 Wed, 12 Jun 2013 09:27:14 +0000 jbro 318581@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi Rob, thanks for your reply. Forgive my ignorance — I can set the field to dynamically update — but how do I set the first form to do a redirect that passes the data via a query string?<br /> Sorry for the newbie question, but your help is much appreciated.<br /> Thanks </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/dynamically-populate-a-second-page#post-318491 Wed, 12 Jun 2013 07:47:22 +0000 Rob Harrell 318491@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>You can do this with dynamic population via a query string method as listed here:<br /> <a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Using_Dynamic_Population" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Using_Dynamic_Population</a></p> <p>Basically your first form's confirmation would be a redirect that passes the data via the query string to the page URL where form number 2 resides. On this form you would have the field set to dynamically populate so it reads from your query string you pass over. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/dynamically-populate-a-second-page#post-317809 Tue, 11 Jun 2013 20:39:05 +0000 jbro 317809@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi, I've read up on dynamically populating form data — and merge data — and it seems close to what I need to do not quite the right thing. </p> <p>I'd like to have a two-step form submission process. On the first page, someone types in a Question on a form with one entry field. They click submit and are brought to a second page (form) with the same Question field (pre-populated with their first submission, and editable), plus new form fields for Name and Email. Clicking Submit on this page sends the form to the Notification addresses specified in settings. </p> <p>Everything I've read seems geared towards dynamically populating a form from user data, not from a form submission. Am I on the right track? Can someone point me towards how to make this happen? </p> <p>Thanks </p>
