[Hustle Pro] Autofill user's data?

Is there a way to autofill the user’s first name, last name and emailaddress in Hustle?
I want to add the user to Mailster, and if he is already logged in I want this data prefilled.

    Hi Eddy

    I hope you are doing well.

    I’m afraid this option is not possible using Hustle, however, you can use a Forminator Form inside the Hustle content instead of a regular Hustle email.

    I am also sending this thread as a feature request to the plugin team.

    Thanks Patrick.

    I have found an alternative that is working fine now.
    I’ll share it with you, perhaps someone will be facing a similar need and searching for a solution.

    On the website visitors can register with their social account (through the Nextend Social Login plugin) or on the traditional way, with username and password. In that case I am using Forminator registration form. That all works fine (except for a bug in Forminator for which a separate ticket has been opened).

    What I also wanted is to add each user to a mailing list. I am using Mailster, but it can be any.
    Mailster has the possibility to add new WordPress users automatically to a mailing list. Works fine for the users registered through the Forminator registration form, but it did not work for the Nextend Social registration.
    That’s why I was looking for a solution through a Hustle embed form, just to add to the 2nd Nextend Social Login page with the prefilled info from the logged in user. (For social login there is always a 2nd step for accepting the terms and privacy policy, and for adding the emailaddress in case the user has set this to not shareable in his social profile.)

    The solution I implemented was by adding a 3rd step for the social login, an information step where we show the user data that we obtained from the social profile and that we store in our email list. This is a regular Mailster input form with the input fields set to output only. By confirming that data, it is added to the Mailster list without the user re-entering any info for himself again. It is actually just pressing one more button, that’s it.

    In my case there is one input field in that 3rd step, that is approval for promotional campaigns (yes or no), so that we comply with GDPR.

    Took me a lot of time to have this working, and at the end it is the most logical: back to the input form of the email newsletter plugin itself. Where it belongs.

    Thanks for helping me.
