Fields auto filled via link

Hi @darrellwilde

I hope you are doing great today. To better understand your inquiry, do you mean a situation where users enter for example their LinkedIn profile URL (link) the form will automatically collect user information(name, address, experience, etc.) and fill it in.

If the above-mentioned feature is what you are asking about, I am afraid that such a feature is not currently available on the latest version Forminator plugin.

However, if this feature request is doable the support team get back to you through this thread and also note it down.

Kind regards,

Hi @darrellwilde

I hope you’re well today!

Yes, fields can be automatically filled-in from URL.

Let’s say you have a field “name-1” and you want to fill-it from link. This is how you do it:

1. edit the form and open your “name-1” field for editing
2. switch to field’s “Settings” tab and you’ll see “Pre-populate” section
3. in the “Query parameter (optional)” field put the name of the URL parameter that is used to pass that name; for example, if your URL is

https://domain.com/?person=John

you’d want to put word person in that option.

4. Apply changes and update the form

Now if you visit URL like the example above, the “name-1” field will automatically be filled-in with name John.

The same way it can work for other fields. Take a look here, please:
