I have added other custom user meta information, but I am not getting those to show on the form. Here is a screenshot of my user meta info: <a href="http://brewsterathletics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/user_meta.bmp" rel="nofollow">http://brewsterathletics.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/12/user_meta.bmp</a>.</p> <p>I've enter these tags in the default value section:<br /> - {user:first_name}<br /> - {user:user_email}<br /> - {user:street_address}<br /> - {user:username}</p> <p>Only the email shows for me. Am I doing it correctly?</p> <p>Thanks again. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/populating-a-form-dynamically-1#post-107113 Mon, 24 Dec 2012 12:31:19 +0000 David Peralty 107113@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>It is possible, but as you alluded to, it isn't built-in. Some things, like their name has merge tags that you can use as the default values: <a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Merge_Tags" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Merge_Tags</a></p> <p>If you have saved their other details to custom user meta, than you can use those as tags as well to have their details filled out. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/populating-a-form-dynamically-1#post-107101 Mon, 24 Dec 2012 12:07:24 +0000 PowerMedia 107101@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I'll try to explain this as best as possible. I would like to dynamically populate forms based on information collected via the user registration add-on. I'll preface this by saying I can accomplish this via a query string, but it's not what I'm looking for. This is what I would like to do. </p> <p>Is there a way to carry information collected from the user registration add-on dynamically populate it into all other forms...granted that they are logged in? To explain it further, I would collect name, address, home phone, cell phone, etc.. and once they are logged in that information would automatically be populated into any form they select.</p> <p>I do not expect a total solution for this, but would like to know if it is possible and, if so, a quick explanation toward accomplishing it.</p> <p>Thanks for any help and Happy Holidays! </p>
