You can't view source and copy-n-paste the form code. That isn't going to work.</p> <p>If you need to insert the form into the theme template files directly you would use the function call to display the form.</p> <p>Information on this can be found in documentation here:</p> <p><a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Embedding_A_Form" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Embedding_A_Form</a></p> <p>When using the function call you also have to use a second function call in your themes functions.php file to enqueue the necessary scripts and CSS. That function call is documented here:</p> <p><a href="http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Gravity_form_enqueue_scripts" rel="nofollow">http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Gravity_form_enqueue_scripts</a> </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/need-code-vs-short-code#post-41296 Wed, 16 Nov 2011 15:51:08 +0000 Altstatten 41296@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I'm using a theme that requires the actual form code. The short-code won't work. (It's for a squeeze page and the theme has its' own little data-field for the form code entry, and the GF short-code won't work.</p> <p>I've tried the "View Source" on a successful presentation page of the form I need, copy/paste but I don't know enough about php/html to know how much of it I need and what I dont'.</p> <p>How can I get the code for a GF form? </p>
