This is on the feature list for a future version. It maybe done soon, but I can make no promise on when. I just do this as a hobby in my spare time. Donations can help me afford more time.
Hey good news I am working on it. 🙂
It will work on any field type except attachment.
Done. This modification with FAQ page took approx 8 hours. If everybody who uses it just donated a few $$ I would appreciate it. Thanks – Mike Challis

Wow – thank you. Looks great – I’ll test it shortly.
My two WordPress sites are for clubs, so also a spare time hobby (day job is asp.net and sql server) but I shall talk nicely to the Treasurer about a donation as your Fast Secure Contact Form is proving a great benefit to both.
Thanks so much.
Using plus signs for spaces to pass field info in the URL:
This works for me in Firefox but IE gives me a 404 not found. Any ideas?
Example: http://obsessed-with-music.com/wp/contests?2subject=NOW36+or+NOW90s
Thanks.
Ooops, figured out my problem but thanks…

On a similar note, would anyone know if its possible to pre-fill a form using a logged in user’s info without passing in a query string? I’m able to pass data via the query string but I’m hoping to be able to load personal info (address, etc) without having to pass via a query string…
Awesome plugin!
Thanks!
Jim
Jim, the form will insert a logged in users name and email address, but that is all. Any other form fields would be extra form fields and those are all optional, so I would have no way of knowing where to load personal info (address, etc).
I’m trying to send query data from a contact form to a site that requires ‘%20’ for spaces and not plus signs. How can I change this?
kja03,
in the file si-contact-form.php
look for line 519:
if($return == 'array')
return $posted_data_export;
else
return $query_string;
right before it, add this line:
$query_string = str_replace('+','%20',$query_string);
I’d like to prefill the extra fields using php variables or custom fields instead of querystring. Is it possible?
Excellent plugin!
Just downloaded it and playing with it to see if it really meets my needs! So far its perfect, however i have a question.
For the redirect URL i am getting the following:
http://myweb.mycompany.com/thanks/?from_name=My+Name#038;from_email=myemail%40gmail.com&ex_field1=5&ex_field2=NameHere&ex_field3=98764&
I am trying to create a page to grab the URL via GET and put the data on the screen for the user, however when i use the $_GET[‘var’] in PHP i am only able to output the “from_name” variable. The rest just break.
Is it posible to make the URL redirect with & and not do the encoding at all? If not how do i transform the URL so i can read it with GET
Thanks in advance!
Alex
