 * Hi,
    I would like to know if it is possible to include links in the table that
   will open a form (I am using QuForm plugin) and pre-populate some fields with
   data from the table?
 * I have a Diary page with a table of dates available for booking boat charters.
   
   [http://www.mvhalton.co.uk/book-a-dive/book2016/](http://www.mvhalton.co.uk/book-a-dive/book2016/)
   I would like to include a new column with a link in each row that will launch
   an Enquiry Form where: Week No, Date, Spaces and location are pre-populated from
   data of chosen row. [http://www.mvhalton.co.uk/book-a-dive/diary-enquiry/](http://www.mvhalton.co.uk/book-a-dive/diary-enquiry/)
 * Is this possible and if so how?
 * Regards,
    Steve

 * Hi,
 * thanks for your question, and sorry for the trouble.
 * I’m afraid that this is more a question for the support team of the forms plugin
   that you are using. They need to have a mechanism to extract information from
   an HTML table. Inserting a link (or some JavaScript) that then opens the forms–
   provided they have a JS API for that – is not really a problem.
 * TablePress itself can not really help here, as it does not offer a forms functionality.
 * Regards,
    Tobias

 * OK,
    Thank you Tobias. I will get hold of QuForm chaps and see if anything can
   be done.

 * Hi there!
 * Is it possible to populate a table using records from a contact form 7 form. 
   In addition, the table has to be dynamic in terms of rows and columns?
 * Appreciate your help!

 * Hi,
 * no, sorry. Something like this is not directly possible with TablePress. Table
   data can only be entered on the table’s “Edit” screen. There’s no integration
   with Forms plugins or similar.

    Tobias

 * Thank you Tobias,
 * Sorry if my question sounds a bit silly. I’m new to WP, but if you don’t mind,
   do you know any plugins that can do that for me pls.
 * Thanks again,
 * Joseph

 * Hi,
 * sorry, unfortunately, I’m not familiar with forms plugins so that I can not make
   a recommendation here.
 * Regards,
