gautam prefill field values in visualforce page of site
Hi All,
I have created a visualforce page in site and i send mails to contacts to register for an event.
Then the contacts click on the link in mail which leads them to the visuaforce page of site i created.
Now when they see the page, i dont want them to enter all the values like event name and time.
These event name & time fields should get prefilled when they click to register in their mails which takes them to visualforce page of the site.
How can i achieve this ? please help.
I can think of two ways to do this.
#1: Do you have a visualforce page for each event name and time? If so, you can code the default values into the page and controller. For example: https://test.force.com/apex/event1. Then when that page loads, the controller predefines what to default the values to.
#2: Or the hyperlink the user receives in the email can pass in query string parameters on the url to tell the visualforce page what to default those fields to: https://test.force.com/apex/event?name=dreamforce&time=2010.
