browser auto fill

when signing in to/ up for other sites google prompts an option to auto fill the data boxes/ and request to save your data for later use.

I created a form that submits to a collection (input boxes, radio buttons, etc.). But google/ browsers don’t request to auto fill your data. Is there anyway to enable/ direct where it auto fills to. Thanks.

all these articles talk about setting the data value of an input box from an existing database. I want to be able to use the browsers database. Such as, you sign up for amazon, you enter your address and email etc. A pop up then appears asking if you want to save that data for later use. You can then go on my wix site and start typing. It will create a pop up asking if you would like to auto fill. Which would then fill in your information that you’ve used previously

I have this same question too! Help!

I have to UP this article because I can’t find any solution, and the answers from GOS are off topic (sorry, I mean, unfortunalty… :slight_smile:

How to tell a specific user input which data to use from User Browser data.

Auto suggestion for First Name, Last Name, Email works fine in my form, but unfortunalty, I add a text input, and wix consider it to be a LastName input.

So when I autofill the form using my browser suggestion, it add my last name on both inputs.

I have done two screenshot to explain better

Here is the form before I complete it :

And here is the form after using the email to auto fill the form’s inputs

Any one can clarify how wix determine which input use which data from user browser ?

It is not wix (nor any website) who will determine the usage of a input box on a page. Its your browser which does that.

Browsers usually see the placeholder or the text id. See this: https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2015/06/checkout-faster-with-autofill

Thanks Shan

You’re right, I manage to change the auto suggestion from the browser by changing the placeholder text. No more confusion now

Thanks !
