populate field data with shortcode from another plugin (WP e-Member)

Give this this URL:
http://example.com/fname=Chris

You would use a parameter name of "fname" and then when you visit that URL (which is a page with a form embedded in it) the field with a parameter name of 'fname' would be prepopulated with 'Chris'.

Can you use the shortcode in the default value, rather than the parameter box? The parameter box is use for a name which would be in the query string as shown above. I can't remember if the default value supports shortcodes or not. If it does not, we will need to use another way of pre-populating the form field. You can read about other ways, here:

One way would be to get the value from WP e-Member and use the gform_field_value_$parameter_name to pre-populate the value. http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Gform_field_value_$parameter_name
