    Thank you for me sending me a response on prepopulating a form with data. But I am still not sure how to populate the email of the WordPress user login. Is there some more detail on this


    Thx

    Hi,

    I am trying to understand what you are trying to do from your inquiry.

    Your question, "But I am still not sure how to populate the email of the WordPress user login", I am wondering if you are looking for ways to save data from the form, and let the user carry on entering the rest of data while some data fields are pre-populated from previous entry?

    Please tell me if it is what you are looking for. I hope I understood what you are trying to achieve so that I can avoid not providing the answer you want to get.

    I look forward to hearing from you.

    The scenario is as follows.


    I have a wordpress portal that people login to with their wordpress login eg. username AndyVoss This will be attached to a user profile that has first, name, email.

    In the portal I have webpage that I embed a jot form such as the following:

    https://form.jotform.com/210463384577360

    What I want to happen is that when the page with the embedded form it will populate the appropriate fields with the details that they used to access the portal, rather than them have to re-input the same details everytime they use a form.

    You may populate the form using URL parameters.
