How to allow fields to be populated dynamically?(Auto-populate form fields)

Query string allows you to append information with a given URL by appending parameters to it which automatically populates the related field. This helps website owners to create a form that can have similar entries for certain form fields for a set of users. Users can use the URL provided by the sites to save themselves some time and decrease the confusion to fill out some fields.

Steps:

• Go to required registration form and click on edit.
• For the field you would like to be auto-populated, click on th field which takes you to the field settings.
• Scroll down to the Advanced Settings, and on ‘Allow field to be populated dynamically’ dropdown, select ‘Yes’.
• Now, add the parameter of your choice.
• Add the form’s shortcode to the registration page.

After doing the above steps, you can append the parameters to the page/posts URLs as in the example below.

where parameter1 is the name of the parameter for the field and value1 is the required value for that field.
http://urtest.test/register/?fname=wpeverest&lname=test&...
Note: parameter name can be anything of your choice. Here, firstname field is written as 'fname'.

Now, provide this URL to your users and the form will be auto-populated with the values of fields in the parameter.

Validate as a unique field

Four of the most useful fields can be validated as unique fields. This includes first name, last name, phone number, and input field.

In the example below, a phone number field is validated as a unique field.

Validate as unique: Dropdown for Yes/No to validate as unique.
Validation message for the duplicate: Compose a message to be shown if the field is not unique.

If the field is duplicated, the following error message will be shown.

—Select Popup Type: You can choose between Registration and Login which will let you decide what popup are you making.

We have Popup Content as the second section. This section is also not that confusing. Inside this section, we see:

—Popup Header Content: In this editor section, you can write some content for the Header Section of your popup.

—Select Form: Here you can select the Registration Form that you want to display in the popup. The Registration forms will be shown in the dropdown input box.

How To Add a Popup to the Menu?

You can also add the Popup in the Menu Bar as a Menu Option. After you have created the Popup, you can simply go to Appearance > Menu and then add the popup to your Menu.

After you have added it, click on Save Menu and then visit your site. The Popup Link will show up in the Menu. When you click on it, the Popup will show up.

How To Add a Popup as a Button?

You can add the popup as a button such that when the button is clicked, the popup is shown. This gives you the flexibility to add the popup anywhere you would like to. For example, between the contents of a post, widgets, etc.

For this, you will have to add parameters to the existing shortcode. For example, adding type=”button” i.e [user_registration_popup id=”1″ type=”button”] will create a button with the registration form’s popup.

Here, we have added the shortcode on the footer widget area.

Result:

Note: You can also add a parameter button_text="Register Me" to change the text on the button.

Below the Revenue Overview, there are three additional graphs displayed in a single row:

1. Orders & Payments
2. Members Overview
3. Signup Analytics (Form-based)

These graphs provide supporting insights into transactions, member activity, and registration performance.
