Slider links now support parameter substitution where a placeholder is replaced with the correct value when clicked by a user. These placeholders can include most user profile fields (e.g. username, firstname, surname, etc) as well as custom metadata (e.g. [m]usr_phone). Password and password hash are not permitted.
To utilise, simple place the field/metadata name inside of double curly brackets.
Examples:
- http://www.example.com/?username={{username}}
- http://www.example.com/?firstname={{firstname}}
- http://www.example.com/?phone={{[m]usr_phone}}
