Eg example.com/form/?product=item1</p> <p>In your form, change your field under advanced to allow populate dynamically and give it a parameter of product. Then it should work for you. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/how-to-populate-the-form-with-one-link-title#post-67235 Fri, 20 Jul 2012 11:03:14 +0000 fernando 67235@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hello, </p> <p>Sorry if this a basic question but can't find any answer. </p> <p>I need my visitors to choose products Link 1, Link 2 or Link 3, (these are variations of a product) and when they click the chosen link they go straight to the form. </p> <p>In my form, I have a text field called "your chosen product" and I need this automatically populated with the Link Title they previously clicked (hope it makes sense!).</p> <p>How can I retrieve this into the form?</p> <p>Much appreciated! </p>
