I do not have the page running WP Photo Album Plus up anymore as I've changed to an Elegant theme. wp photo album plus provided a type of shortcode in %%album%% format as I recall. I was able to use it in a field description which integrated a sort of photo album slider. It did work but WPPAP was sort of buggy for me. Anyways will shortcodes every be usable in a form? Would it even be useful in other cases? Thanks </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/using-theme-shortcode-inside-gravity-forms#post-182395 Sat, 23 Mar 2013 22:37:42 +0000 Chris Hajer 182395@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>You can use the WP Photo Album Plus shortcode inside the form description of a Gravity Form, but not the one from the Elegant Theme? I don't think I have ever used a shortcode in a form description before, and I just tried now and it did not work for me. Can you show us a page on your site where this is working and not working, when you embed either shortcode? Thank you. </p> https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/topic/using-theme-shortcode-inside-gravity-forms#post-179764 Thu, 21 Mar 2013 14:54:00 +0000 way2hota 179764@https://legacy.forums.gravityhelp.com/ <p>I've used a plugin called WP Photo Album Plus and used the shortcode to insert a small slideshow inside of the gravity form (Placed it inside the description area) </p> <p>Now I want to use a shortcode from an elegant theme that inserts a slider/imageslideshow</p> <p>Typical shortcode between brackets but it doesn't show up. instead it displays the actual shortcode.
