"name" is a reserved parameter within WordPress that can't be used. It will return a 404.</p> <p>Go to that url and remove the name parameter and you will see that email works. See:</p> <p><a href="http://www.indonesiamatters.com/book-flight/?email=test%40yahoo.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.indonesiamatters.com/book-flight/?email=test%40yahoo.com</a></p> <p>What you will have to do is use a different parameter name other than "name". Maybe "yourname" instead. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/how-to-send-parameters-from-one-from-to-another#post-5823 Thu, 27 May 2010 11:12:03 +0000 patung 5823@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I think I've followed all the directions here but it's not working, the sending form redirects to this - <a href="http://www.indonesiamatters.com/book-flight/?name=test+4&amp;email=test%40yahoo.com" rel="nofollow">http://www.indonesiamatters.com/book-flight/?name=test+4&amp;email=test%40yahoo.com</a> which is 404.</p> <p>In sending form which is here <a href="http://www.indonesiamatters.com/flights-faq/" rel="nofollow">http://www.indonesiamatters.com/flights-faq/</a> I'm using Redirect as <a href="http://www.indonesiamatters.com/book-flight/" rel="nofollow">http://www.indonesiamatters.com/book-flight/</a> and with Pass Field Data Via Query String checked, and this in the box:</p> <p>name={Your Name:1}&amp;email={Your Email:2}</p> <p>On receiving form I've defined 2 fields with 'name' and 'email'. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/how-to-send-parameters-from-one-from-to-another#post-4696 Wed, 14 Apr 2010 15:13:31 +0000 bearclaws 4696@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>This worked perfectly!</p> <p>This was the feature I was missing: Pass Field Data Via Query String</p> <p>Thank you very much :) </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/how-to-send-parameters-from-one-from-to-another#post-4695 Wed, 14 Apr 2010 14:49:45 +0000 Carl Hancock 4695@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Passing data to a form only works if you have turned the ability on for the individual fields. If you haven't done that, here is what you need to do.</p> <p>On the receiving form:</p> <p>- Edit the field containing the zip code (might be standalone or an address field)<br /> - Go to the Advanced tab<br /> - Check the "Allow field to be populated dynamically" checkbox<br /> - Give the zip code box a parameter name (ex. zipcode, zip-code, etc.)<br /> - Save the form</p> <p>The parameter is what you pass in the query string as you mentioned in your post above.</p> <p>On the sending form:</p> <p>- Edit the form settings<br /> - Go to the Confirmation tab<br /> - Choose Redirect from the available Confirmation options<br /> - Enter the URL to the Receiving form (ex. /my-receiving-form)<br /> - Click the Pass Field Data Via Query String checkbox<br /> - Build your querystring in the provided box. To insert a form field value use the included "Insert form field" drop down which will output a field variable token.</p> <p>Don't include the initial ? mark. So for example it might look something like this in the query string box if you used a parameter called zipcode and a field variable for a zipcode field on an address box:</p> <p>zipcode={Address (Zip / Postal Code):1.5}</p> <p>- Save the form</p> <p>Please note the query string example I used won't work exactly as I have displayed it as the form field variable for the zipcode itself will vary from form to form.</p> <p>If the above doesn't work we would need a WordPress admin login to the site so we can take a look and see what is going on.

When submitted, the form directs the user to a new page with a receiving form (containing more fields).</p> <p>I want to dynamically populate the ZIP in the receiving form using the ZIP entered in the homepage form. How can I do this?</p> <p>The receiving form field is populated when I enter a querystring:<br /> /my-receiving-form/?zip-code=12345</p> <p>...but it does not populate when I post data from the homepage form.</p> <p>Any ideas? </p>
