How can I populate a form in Webflow with the job name and reference number from a specific job?
To populate a form in Webflow with the job name and reference number from a specific job, you can utilize the Webflow CMS and dynamic content features. Follow these steps:
Create a Collection: Start by creating a Collection in the Webflow CMS to store the job details. Each item in the Collection will represent a different job, with fields for the job name, reference number, and any other relevant information.
Add a Form: In the Webflow Designer, drag and drop a Form element onto your desired page. Customize the form fields according to your needs. For this scenario, you may want to include fields for the job name and reference number.
Bind Form Fields: With the Form element selected, navigate to the right sidebar and open the Form settings. Choose the form fields you wish to bind to the job details from the Collection.
Connect to Collection: In the Form settings, click on the field you want to connect to the job name and reference number. In the binding options, select the appropriate field from the Collection. For example, if the job name field in the Collection is called "Name," select that option. Repeat this step for the reference number field.
Publish and Test: Once you've set up the form, publish your site to see it in action. When a user accesses a specific job page, the job name and reference number will be dynamically filled into the corresponding form fields. Users can then enter additional details and submit the form.
By following these steps, you can seamlessly populate a form in Webflow with the job name and reference number from a specific job, creating a smooth user experience and streamlining the data collection process.
