I’m working on a membership website where users can submit some info through a native Webflow form. I don’t want the users to be forced to include identifying info on this form - why should that be necessary, considering that they’re logged in?
I’m currently looking for a way to automatically add a “username” field to the submission form that matches the user’s. Any suggestions?
Some info that may be relevant:
I’m currently using Sygnal Attributes to show the user’s name on certain pages.
Webflow doesn’t have a username per-se, it uses the email as a permanent unique identifier.
However if you have a username custom field, or just want to use the Name field, you can do that.
SA5 can then automatically databind them to your form inputs however you like;
e.g. to databind the user’s name to an input, you can just add the attribute;
wfu-bind = $user.name
For custom attributes, it depends on how you slug your custom attribute fields, but it works similarly.
