I changed the parameter to an uppercase letter i.e. "Name" and the query string passed into the form.</p> <p>I'm not sure why it made a difference but figured I would mention it anyway. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/populate-fields-dynamically#post-4297 Fri, 26 Mar 2010 17:19:47 +0000 Chris Hajer 4297@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>ActiveFriends, it looks like the Apache mod_speling (yep, speling) module is running? </p> <p>Try this URL to see what I mean:<br /> <a href="http://www.zenmediastudios.com/conta" rel="nofollow">http://www.zenmediastudios.com/conta</a></p> <p>Should redirect you to:<br /> <a href="http://www.zenmediastudios.com/contact-us/" rel="nofollow">http://www.zenmediastudios.com/contact-us/</a></p> <p>Can you try disabling it by adding this to the top of your .htaccess?</p> <pre><code>&lt;IfModule mod_speling.c&gt; CheckSpelling on &lt;/IfModule&gt;</code></pre> <p>Then try accessing your contact form with the query string as you posted initially (although it might be better with a slash before the <strong>?name=test</strong>), like <a href="http://www.zenmediastudios.com/contact-us/?name=test" rel="nofollow">http://www.zenmediastudios.com/contact-us/?name=test</a> Worth a shot maybe? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/populate-fields-dynamically#post-4294 Fri, 26 Mar 2010 16:22:21 +0000 Carl Hancock 4294@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Try deleting your .htaccess file, then go to the WordPress Permalinks page and save that page again so that it updates. Then test the form address.</p> <p>Your site isn't treating the querystring parameters as querystring parameters, but rather a separate page which of course doesn't exist. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/populate-fields-dynamically#post-4293 Fri, 26 Mar 2010 16:14:37 +0000 ActiveFriends 4293@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>&lt;IfModule mod_rewrite.c&gt;<br /> RewriteEngine On<br /> RewriteBase /<br /> RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f<br /> RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d<br /> RewriteRule . /index.php [L]<br /> &lt;/IfModule&gt; </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/populate-fields-dynamically#post-4262 Thu, 25 Mar 2010 23:25:50 +0000 Carl Hancock 4262@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>No, what you are doing should work. </p> <p>It appears for some reason your WordPress install is not treating it as a query string parameter. It looks like a permalink rewrite issue. That is why you are getting a 404 error message.</p> <p>Do you have any permalink settings you have done outside the standard WordPress permalink settings? Are you running on a Windows machine? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/populate-fields-dynamically#post-4248 Thu, 25 Mar 2010 15:18:16 +0000 ActiveFriends 4248@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Before I get flogged --- I know this topic has been covered before, and I've read more posts then I care to mention about this, however, it's not working for me.</p> <p>I'm using GForms in WP 2.9 and I have setup a test form that "should" allow dynamic population according to all the documentation I've read, but it's not.</p> <p>The form: <a href="http://www.zenmediastudios.com/contact-us/" rel="nofollow">http://www.zenmediastudios.com/contact-us/</a><br /> The field: "name"<br /> The attempt: <a href="http://www.zenmediastudios.com/contact-us?name=test" rel="nofollow">http://www.zenmediastudios.com/contact-us?name=test</a></p> <p>All I get is the error page because that "page" doesn't exist, it's not reading it as a form and pre-populating the field.</p> <p>Am I that daft? </p>
