Problem:
I want to create a view that shows a search results page. I want to prepopulate the search term with the content of a custom post field (via shortcode). And I want the page to load automatically the results when first loading the URL. Is it possible to achieve this with the plugin?
Solution:
I assume we are talking about the search box outputted from Views shortcode [wpv-filter-search-box].

It needs some custom codes, for example, when user first loading the URL, you can use Views filter hook wpv_filter "wpv_filter_query" to trigger a custom PHP function, in this PHP function, prepopulate the search term and the search result.

For example, you can add below codes into your theme/functions.php:

add_filter('wpv_filter_query', 'my_func', 1, 3);
function my_func($query_args, $view_settings, $view_id){
    if($view_id == 123){
        if(!isset($_GET['wpv_post_search'])){
            $_GET['wpv_post_search'] = 'my search term';
        }
    }
    return $query_args;
}

Please replace 123 with your Views's ID.
