Stop forcing your users to repeat themselves. Gravity Perks Easy Passthrough is the ultimate efficiency tool for Gravity Forms, designed to seamlessly transfer data from one form to another. Whether you are building complex multi-step workflows or simply want to create a frictionless user experience, this plugin ensures that information entered by a user on an initial form is automatically populated into subsequent forms. By eliminating redundant data entry, you increase conversion rates, reduce user frustration, and ensure your data remains consistent across your entire site.
Key Features
- Automatic Data Mapping: Effortlessly pass field values from one form to the next using simple settings, without needing to write custom code.
- Support for Complex Field Types: Easily transfer data from standard text fields, checkboxes, radio buttons, dropdowns, and even more advanced Gravity Forms field types.
- Dynamic URL Parameters: Leverage the power of query strings to pass data via URLs, allowing you to pre-populate forms from email links, external sources, or previous form submissions.
- Conditional Logic Integration: Maintain full control over your forms by pairing Easy Passthrough with Gravity Forms’ native conditional logic, ensuring data only passes when specific criteria are met.
- Seamless User Experience: Create a cohesive journey for your customers. When a user moves from a lead capture form to a detailed application or checkout form, their information is already waiting for them.
- Developer Friendly: While it works out of the box, developers can utilize powerful hooks and filters to customize the data transfer process for highly specific business requirements.
Use Cases / Who It’s For
Gravity Perks Easy Passthrough is an essential tool for any business or developer relying on Gravity Forms to manage user data. If your website involves multi-stage processes, this plugin is designed to save your users time and keep your data clean.
Lead Generation Experts: If you use a short “teaser” form to capture a name and email, and then direct users to a longer survey or inquiry form, Easy Passthrough ensures that the lead’s contact information is already filled out when they land on the second page. This significantly reduces abandonment rates.
E-commerce and Service Providers: For businesses that require a quote request followed by a formal order form, this plugin allows you to carry over product selections, customer details, and project requirements from the initial request to the final contract or payment form.
Membership and Event Sites: If you have a registration process that spans multiple forms, Easy Passthrough ensures that user profile data, event preferences, or ticket selections are carried forward, providing a professional and polished experience that keeps users engaged until the final submission.
Setup / How It Works
Getting started with Easy Passthrough is designed to be intuitive for anyone familiar with the Gravity Forms interface. You do not need to be a developer to create complex data-passing workflows.
- Install and Activate: Ensure both Gravity Forms and the Gravity Perks plugin manager are active on your WordPress site, then install the Easy Passthrough perk.
- Enable Passthrough: Navigate to the settings of the target form (the form you want to receive the data). Within the Easy Passthrough settings tab, enable the feature.
- Map Your Fields: Select the source form that contains the data you wish to pull. The plugin provides a simple interface to map fields from the source form to the corresponding fields in your current form.
- Configure URL Parameters (Optional): If you prefer to pass data via links, configure your URL structure to include the necessary query parameters. The plugin will automatically detect these and populate the matching fields on the form.
- Test and Deploy: Once configured, perform a test submission to ensure the data flows correctly between forms. Your users will now enjoy a smoother, faster submission process.
