Creating a Dashboard widget with a gravity form

    Hey there,
    So I have a dashboard widget I've created for client sites I build. I wanted to include a Gravity Form in this dashboard widget. However, when I create the widget and include the shortcode, only the shortcode text is printed on screen. I know that there's a filter you can add to functions.php that enables use of shortcodes in standard widgets; does this exist for dashboard widgets? Is it possible to do what I'm looking to do?

    Tips and guidance are appreciated.

    I don't know about shortcodes in dashboard widgets, but you can use the function call to add a gravity form to your widget: http://www.gravityhelp.com/documentation/page/Embedding_A_Form#Function_Call

    Will that work for you?
