Pre-populating a Field

When you want to pre-populate a field with a known value you have a few options.

The Sprout Fields Hidden Field and Invisible Field help do this for scenarios where you do not need the user to see the value in the field being populated.

When you want to populate a visible field from a known value, you can use Javascript. Here is an example of how to do that with a Text field.

{# Output your form #} {{ craft.sproutForms.displayForm('application') }}  {# Check if the value you want to use to populate the field exists #} {% if craft.request.getParam('location') is defined %} 	<script type="text/javascript">      {# Use javascript to select your field by ID and populate your field value. #}     document.getElementById("fields-locationFieldHandle").value = "{{ craft.request.getParam('location') }}"; 	</script> {% endif %}
