Pre-populate information on forms
Meredith Owens
If a member is logged in, pre-populate the name, email address, and phone number fields on "Contact Form" and "Custom Form" pages.

This seems like a popular request that should be simple enough to implement… but no progress since 2019?
Meredith Owens
Administrator Punta Piedra: Our product team is still looking at developing this capability! Over the last several years, our team's priority has been developing our next gen front ends, which is an enormous project for our team, as it’s a total rewrite of the existing front ends using new cutting-edge technology and design. We’ve prioritized this because improving the front ends considerably allows us to release new features faster.
We're currently working on the last major piece of this project, which is developing the new front ends for our community websites. That will need to be completed before we develop this.

Agree! Can we have Contact Form Pre-Populate with Logged In User's - User Name, E-Mail, and Phone similar to how these values auto-populates on Resident Alert Page?
Judy Bartle
Also would like this. We're new to HOA-Express but I anticipate it will be a top complaint from owners using the forms.

Agree, we are using more custom forms and this would help with less typos and spelling errors or omission of all information.

Pre-fill form with member/account information
Mitch Letho
It would be very useful to allow the form to pull directly from the member or account data. For example, if the form prompt is capturing a name, that field would be prefilled accordingly.
If the form prompt was for a phone number, then that could be pre-filled too.

No one should ever be forced to enter basic information twice. Once and only once when they register - computers can remember and reload basic data.

Need pre population of forms. why register logins if you cannot use that information in a form submissions..

Custom Form - Include submitter
Joseph Fry
Currently, the custom form only includes fields that the user fills out. If a logged in member completes the form, its annoying to ask them for their name and email address; we have that information and it should be included automatically.
This could be done several ways:
- add a member info field type
- add "member name", "member phone", etc as "details" for a field (which would only populate automatically if the person completing the form is a member)
- Include member info with every form submission

This is also useful on the reservation form. A user shouldn't have to re enter any profile information that is already in the system.

Jill McConnen: Just for clarification, if you've named a page on your website "reservation form," you've probably added a custom form page type, which is mentioned in my previous comment. We don't, though, offer a page type specifically for reservations.
