Using Shortcodes: Pre Populate multiple answers?

    I’ve managed to pre-populate a single drop down menu using the following code

    [gravityform id=1 field_values='firstname=Carl']

    All I want is to simply pre-populate this drop down menu and another drop-down menu on my form. What is the syntax for this? I’ve tried ampersands, commas, spaces, line breaks, ect.

    Hey Mark, look for a response to this tomorrow (Wednesday). We are going to do some testing on our end to verify it's working properly with the current release before we respond with the correct syntax.

    Mark,
    If you are using the HTML tab (not Visual), you need to encode the ampersand.
    [gravityform id=1 field_values='firstname=Carl& amp;lastname=Hancock']

    We will be looking for a more intuitive way of doing this going forward.
