You can set a tabindex on the form call itself:</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> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/tabindex-filter-not-working-to-form-in-widget#post-58283 Wed, 09 May 2012 07:43:20 +0000 madhavaji 58283@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I have the same issue..</p> <p>You can see it in action <a href="http://stg.caliperadmissions.com/en/contact" rel="nofollow">here</a></p> <p>There's a form on the page and another tiny one in the footer. For the form in the footer I'm applying your tabindex filter like this..</p> <pre><code>// // Footer newsletter sign-up tab index filter // function deliberate_form_tabibndex( $value) { return 8; } add_filter(&quot;gform_tabindex_1&quot;, &#39;deliberate_form_tabibndex&#39;);</code></pre> <p>But the tabindex in that tiny footer form seems determined to begin at 1.</p> <p>Any ideas? </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/tabindex-filter-not-working-to-form-in-widget#post-26906 Fri, 03 Jun 2011 11:52:42 +0000 David Smith 26906@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>Hi Gln,</p> <p>We've gotten another similar report recently. Would you be able to share a login to your WP admin and FTP to allow us to take a better look at this? You can email the details to <a href="mailto:david@rocketgenius.com">david@rocketgenius.com</a>.

This gets very problematic when I want to include 2 forms in my sidebar widgets (1 for contact us and the other for newsletter subscription).</p> <p>Can someone here show me if there is anything I miss.<br /> Thanks in advance </p>
