Prepopulating fields can save users time by automatically filling in information that you already know about them. This can make the form-filling process more efficient and user-friendly. Like all embedded Jotform forms, you can prepopulate a Lightbox or Feedback form’s fields by adding the query parameters to the parent window URL.
For example
https://jotformer.blogspot.com/2022/11/feedback-signup-form.html?name[first]=Jane&name[last]=Doe&email=jane.doe@jotform.com&interests=News,Health,SportsYou can also prepopulate the fields by inserting iframeParameters inside the embed code’s JotformFeedback. In this demo form, the iframeParameters section in the Lightbox embed code below prepopulates the Name, Email, and Interests fields:
<script src ="https://form.jotform.com/static/feedback2.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
var JFL_223072173120441 = new JotformFeedback({
iframeParameters: {
name: {
first:'Jane',
last:'Doe'
},
email:'jane.doe@example.com',
interests:'News,Health,Sports'
},
formId: '223072173120441',
base: 'https://form.jotform.com/',
windowTitle: 'Signup Form',
background: '#FFA500',
fontColor: '#FFFFFF',
type: '0',
height: 500,
width: 700,
openOnLoad: true
});
</script>The parameters are in key-value pairs where “key” is the field’s unique name and “value” is what to prepopulate the field with.

I have developed windows form (VB 2012), i wonder if I could use this plugin to directly upload into Wordpress..

I use a lightbox and fill in the data with iframeParameters. But this does not work well for me with "Continue forms latter - Enaeble". My data is being overwritten. How to make my data priority.

ps: the issue I am facing is the lightbox not opening

I tried to combine the lightbox with adding a parameter. But could not tell why I remain unable to get the combination going. Both solutions work well if run separately. Could I ask you for your support?

Hi: I do not get the list of forms as it is shown in the screen shot. I can either embed the script or try to use a short code. Neither of which work. I'm working with Wp v3.9.1 and v1 of your plugin. Thanks for any help!

OK scratch that, as I have tried it in Chrome and not Firefox where a window did pop up for sign in to my Jotform account. I couldn't see anywhere in your instructions that I would get this.
Thanks

Hi
Am I missing something? I have installed the plug in, and yes see the button in the page editor. Clicking on it does nothing. I can't see how it would know what my Jotform account is to bring me back a list of forms to use, so where do I set that up?.
Help!
Thanks
Jim..

By using the above and with a little php I populated a hidden field on my form with the page URL. This way I know for which article I receive the feedback...

I am trying to add a parameter but doesn't seem to work
My form element
input type="text" class="form-textbox" id="input_6" name="q6_test" size="20"
More than a year ago
So the steps for this seems to work when the script is sourced with https://www.jotform.com/min/g=feedback, but not when sourced with https://www.jotform.com/min/g=feedback2. I'm guessing this is a new version of the script, but does not support the iframeparameters.
