special fields: like user's name as a default field value

Hi

How may I have a field that is pre-filled by user's name when a user is logged into the frontend. (or other user related parameters , like email)

regards
magj

Use this FAQ article for current author of the item (but not for currently logged user):

flexicontent.org/documentation/f ... uthor.html

-- Do not change "name as text"
-- But instead of
"id as value"
use:
"name as value" for saving author's fullname into the DB
"email as value" for saving author's email into the DB

Otherwise you will need
-- either a custom field that does this
-- or add a default that is replace via a system plugin

thank you so much for the great Idea of plugin, I couldn't find a ready made plugin for that purpose yet,

is there anyway to insert php code in a field? (sorry if it seem silly) :oops:
i.e.

thanks again


[EDIT]
I used "mgetsys" plugin
extensions.joomla.org/extensions/contact...back/greetings/16341

and it worked for logged in , user's name and email address
