Are you setting up a form where you want people to select a specific business in the directory, a membership level, an upcoming event or other dynamic data, then you'll love this feature.
When setting up a form question, you can now select to pre-fill the options with data from your CMS. We currently support these data options:
List of Countries
Upcoming Events
Membership Programs
Profiles in the Directory
Locations in the Directory
Using this feature enables you to create a dynamic list that updates as you update the CMS. To leverage this feature, simply select a dropdown, radio or checkbox options list and you'll see a new field called Pre-fill Options with Dynamic Data where you can select from the available options.
Once selected, you will notice that the options box will pre-fill with some code.
If you're not technical, then leave as is, but if you're technical and want to filter by a certain field or change the field name and value used, here's a breakdown of how it works:
{@data(type, field name, field value, parameters)@}
type will be pre-filled when selecting an option. we currently support country, events, membership, business, location.
field name is the database field that you want to display as the name/label
field value is the database field that you want to store when selected
parameters are used to filter the data that is displayed. In this case we are filtering by category 3904
Please note that when you leverage the primary key (e.g. business_no) then when viewing the person's response, we will display the name and then link direct to the object in PeopleVine.
