I have Wordpress website using Memberpress. I've now also added FF (which I think is awesome). I want to use the lookup fields in formidable forms to be able to access data that is managed within the Memberpress plugin. For example, when a new member (user) subscribes, they enter their address, which Memberpress records in the Members table. When I create a FF form, insert a lookup field, I cannot access that member (or the address, date of birth, etc) to use in the form. I can only 'lookup' tables/forms created within FF.
Is there a way the FF lookup field can access the Memberpress tables?
I have no experience with coding, but do have access to a WP developer.
Thanks in advance.

You can populate dropdowns with whatever you want using frm_setup_new_fields_vars and frm_setup_edit_fields_vars. They won't, however, be linked (lookup-style) to the tables if that data is outside of Formidable's data. You'll have to make that connection manually.
Potentially a better way to handle it is to create an FF form with the member data you want. Then when member data is saved into the MemberPress table, you use a MemberPress developer hook to write the data to the Formidable table. That way you could link the member data form to your new form.
