Embed or Iframe

  1. Is it possible to Iframe or embed a form. For example facebook or alt site?

    I did read thru the forum but didnt locate a resolve on this issue. I love the forms and there ability and did come over from using wufoo.

    Thanks in advance.

  2. Yes, it is possible to iframe a form into another site. It can be done as a customization. There currently isn't a built in option to do this although it is something we would like to add as a Developer Add-On in the future.

    The best way to embed a form via an iframe right now is on your WordPress site create a page template in your theme that is basically a blank page with just the page content. No design/navigation/etc. Then use this Page Template for the Page you are embedding the form on, create the page and embed the form.

    Then iframe this WordPress page wherever you need to display it on a 3rd party site.

  3. Hi Carl - I'm curious if any more energy has gone into this kind of addon? I suppose all it would have to do is strip all of the styling and sit in it's own little vanilla page template. Not hard to create a blank template, but would be very cool to have a quick option to have a generic view option for forms created with GF. Could be a URL parameter like formpagename?style=facebook. Thanks!

    I have created a blank template with

    <?php
    /*
    Template Name: CQ Only
    */
    ?>
    <?php gravity_form(3, false, false, false, '', false); ?>

    but the page is blank.. I do not what to show the sites navigation, etc in the iframe. Is there something I am missing?

  10. Try including the wp_head() and wp_footer() functions and see what happens.

  14. No I didn't mean to add the header and footer HTML, I mean just those two functions:

    oh... Well, I did that and now it has lost css style.

  16. Right, now just add in your custom styles you applied to the form into the head of your blank template from your stylesheet that you want to retain.
