Populate RS forms with user custom fields
If you need a subscriptionform with prefilled custom field values, and you are using RS Forms, do the following
Go to your form, use a text box, and add a default value like this
//<code>use Joomla\CMS\Factory;use Joomla\Component\Fields\Administrator\Helper\FieldsHelper;$customFields = FieldsHelper::getFields('com_users.user', JFactory::getUser(), true); return $customFields[3]->value;//</code>
This will populate the field with the value of custom-field with ID 3. You can do this as much as you like.
Happy coding!
This article provides a basic example of populating RS Forms with custom user data. However, there are several important considerations and potential improvements to make this more robust and user-friendly.
