If you are having trouble using Gravity Forms, please begin a new topic and ask your question there.

Where do we add the new code? In the themes Functions.php or the Generate box functions.php? sethneal on "Use Gravity Form in Text Widget" https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/use-gravity-form-in-text-widget#post-50157 Tue, 21 Feb 2012 22:19:29 +0000 sethneal 50157@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ Kyle, you are a freaking genius!

Text or HTML. However, I suppose I could try PHP in one of those advanced text widgets (I forget the plugin name). If I was to try that, what PHP code would I put in there? Thank you David.

Unfortunately there is no static HTML form that Gravity Forms uses. Is the "Generate Box" (plugin/theme functionality?) typically support shortcodes? If not, seeing if there is a solution for this to support shortcodes would be your best bet. Alternately, if it could support a bit of PHP code, you could use the "gravity_forms()" function to include the form. sethneal on "Use Gravity Form in Text Widget" https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/use-gravity-form-in-text-widget#post-49499 Wed, 15 Feb 2012 14:16:37 +0000 sethneal 49499@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ Thanks David, I have the MailChimp add-on. The issue is the "Generate Box" uses a text widget. So I need to put text/ html in this text widget. I've tried using the gravity form short code and it doesn't work. So, I'm assuming there's someway to actually find the HTML form code that Gravity Forms uses. That's what I need! Thanks!

You would need at least a Business license to get access to the MailChimp add-on, but it is well worth the money! So easy to setup. :D sethneal on "Use Gravity Form in Text Widget" https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/use-gravity-form-in-text-widget#post-48946 Thu, 09 Feb 2012 18:59:09 +0000 sethneal 48946@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ OK, I am using a new StudioPress theme, Generate, for a site and it has a text widget where you can include code for a form (in this case mailchimp) to subscribe to the blog, etc. <a href="http://davidmarkbrownwrites.com/" rel="nofollow">http://davidmarkbrownwrites.com/</a> The current code I'm using for the form is: <pre><code><form action="http://davidmarkbrownwrites.us1.list-manage.com/subscribe/post?u=37df5e2ebfbf529f941095a2e&id=1edce3322a" method="post" id="mc-embedded-subscribe-form" name="mc-embedded-subscribe-form" class="validate" target="_blank" /> <input type="text" value="Your Best Email" name="EMAIL" class="required email" id="mce-EMAIL" /> <div class="response" id="mce-error-response" style="display:none"></div> <div class="response" id="mce-success-response" style="display:none"></div> <input type="submit" value="Subscribe" name="subscribe" id="mc-embedded-subscribe" class="button" /> </form></code></pre> But what I WANT to do is be able to use my Gravity form that does the same thing, so he can track through gravity forms all those who subscribe to the blog. (I have a gravity form subscribe to the blog type form in the sidebar.) I just don't know how to do this. I tried using the short code, but no go. Is there a way to see the code for a particular gravity form?
