Does anyone know how to encrypt a query string url and still be able to populate a hidden field with its parameter?

The Easy Passthrough plugin has a way to transfer the data securely from form to form (it’s not encrypted I don’t think): [https://gravitywiz.com/documentation/gravity-forms-easy-passthrough/](https://gravitywiz.com/documentation/gravity-forms-easy-passthrough/)

I figured it out, there’s a third party add on that did the trick. It encrypts then decrypts.

I can post the add on in here if you guys allow it. Just let me know.

Good deal:

This is the plugin that allows encrypting and decrypting query strings. There is some configuration to the plugin, but it works.
