  • Hey @prionkor,

    I am checking this with our development team and will get back to you soon with an update!

    Thanks 🙂

    Hi @prionkor,

    You can create a custom smart tag for fetching the Email field value of $_POST and then use the smart tag as the Default Value of the Email field.

    Hope this helps! 🙂

    Thank you for the direction! I was able to create a smart tag that allows adding email from http $_POST.

    NOTE: It also supports query var if you are already linking your form page using query var and email (you should not!).

    Here is the code if anyone interested!

    
    
    /**
     * Register the Smart Tag so it will be available to select in the form builder.
     *
     * @link   https://wpforms.com/developers/how-to-create-a-custom-smart-tag/
     *
     */
    function aud_http_request_email( $tags ) {
     
        // Key is the tag, item is the tag name.
        $tags['http_request_email'] = '$_REQUEST Email';
     
        return $tags;
    }
    add_filter( 'wpforms_smart_tags', 'aud_http_request_email' );
     
    /**
     * Process the Smart Tag.
     *
     * @link   https://wpforms.com/developers/how-to-create-a-custom-smart-tag/
     *
     */
    function aud_http_request_email_smart_tag_process( $content, $tag ) {
     
        // Only run if it is our desired tag.
        if ( 'http_request_email' === $tag ) {
    		
    		if( isset( $_REQUEST['email'] ) && is_email( $_REQUEST['email'] ) ){
    			// Replace the tag email
    			return sanitize_email( $_REQUEST['email'] );	
    		}
    		
    		// replace tag with empty string
    		return '';
        }
     
        return $content;
    }
    add_filter( 'wpforms_smart_tag_process', 'aud_http_request_email_smart_tag_process', 10, 2 );

    # How to use this code?

    You can use https://wordpress.org/plugins/code-snippets/ plugin to add this code into your site. Or you can paste the php into your themes functions.php file.
