I'm trying to prepopulate fields in a webform from the URL. I'm using Webform 7.x-3.20. I have a form named prepopulate. It has a field "First Name" which has the default value set to %get[first_name]. I have tried to prepopulate the field from the following URL:

http://localhost/test_site/?q=content/prepopulate?first_name=miranda

This results in a "page not found" error. Does anyone know why this happens?

Thanks in advance!

*UPDATE: I've figured out this happens because it is a rewritten URL (Pathauto). Still don't know how to fix it, though.

    Did you try using this URL: http://localhost/test_site/?q=content/prepopulate&first_name=miranda? You can't declare the start of the query string twice, after the first ?q= you can append new arguments by using the ampersand character - & :)

Here is the answer.

It seems clean URLs are not enabled in your site. So here I'm giving the solution in both ways

Assuming that your Field Key for First Name field is first_name

If clean URLS not enabled.

http://localhost/test_site/?q=content/prepopulate&first_name=miranda

If clean URLS enabled

http://localhost/test_site/content/prepopulate?first_name=miranda

I've tested this on my environment and works perfect. Hope this helps
