Populate a Form With User DataPRO

This add-on is included with the Agency edition. Users of other WS Form PRO editions can also purchase this add-on separately.
Add-ons require WS Form PRO and are not compatible with the WS Form LITE edition.

It is possible to pre-populate a form with WordPress user data with the User Management add-on. This is useful for creating an Edit Profile form.

To do this:

  1. Install and activate the User Management add-on.
  2. Click the Form Settings  icon in the top toolbar when editing a form.
  3. Click on the Data tab.
  4. Check the Populate Using Action setting.
  5. Select User Management from the Action To Populate From dropdown.
  6. Use the Field Mapping and Meta Mapping settings to determine which fields and user meta you would like to populate into which fields of your form. Click the Add  icon to add new mappings.
  7. If you have a custom field plugin installed, field mapping options for that plugin will also be shown. Use this to match user custom fields to fields on the form. WS Form is integrated with ACF, ACPT, JetEngine, Metabox, Pods, and Toolset.
  8. Click Save.
  9. Click Publish if you want to make the changes live immediately.
