  • I am having the same problem. I can get the Default option to show but i cant actually vary it with URL. What do i have to append to my URL exactly?

    jpd and Jack, did you try other field names besides “name” ?

    PHP sets the values based on the Environment, Get, Post, Cookie, and Server variables, in that order, with variables to the right overwritting variables to the left. So if you had a Cookie named “name” and it was blank, it would overwrite the Get (urlparam) variable of “name”.

    Sorry for jumping in, but I believe it’s because ‘name’ is a reserved variable in WordPress. That’s why it’s not working. You’ll have to use a different variable name such as ?fname=Dwight and then change the shortcode to [urlparam param=”fname” default=”Friend” /]

    Haven’t tested this, but I would guess that’s why.
