Hello,
I would like to request a feature in which you can select default values for the fields in forms. Unfortunately, the prefill option does not work for my use case because I do not want to have to send the link each day with the current date. Also, this is not feasible because not everyone has a company email. I want them to open the page in the web app and have the date field already selected for them to save time. The workaround of having an CreatedDate airtable field does not work because the form may need to filled out retroactively and then the date would be wrong.
Thanks!
Hey Ella, thanks for your suggestion. Noted and added it to our suggestions list to consider when planning further form block updates!

If you don’t have the time to wait for your suggestion to be included in the product roadmap, you can try fillout.com forms, there is a date utility to prefill the form with today’s date, among other date utilities.

This is a great point @acjnas, thanks for highlighting it. Indeed, @Ella, you can use it, embed yoru form and use the embedded codes in our Custom Code block.
I wonder if defaul value is just yet implemented in softr form?
@davit7799 do you mean when the form opened, there is a default value shown in te form?
Yes, when checkmark or dropdown option is already selected by default.
@davit7799 thanks for the clarification. We do not have such an option planned to be added to our form blocks yet 
I would be able to share it with our Product team, if you could share what you are trying to build with it.
