    Can you post a link to the page where the problem exists?

    There isn't really a page to show you. I created a form for members to post stories and I want to have the posted stories appear on my homepage. Do you know how or where to get the shortcode to get the posts to appear on the home page, sort of like a story feed?

    So, your form works fine, you just want to display all of your submitted stories/posts on the homepage?

    If that's all, you just need to make use of the built-in WordPress "wp_list_categories" function. Just configure it to display your "stories" category or whatever you call it on the front/home page of your site.

    EDIT: Sorry, got ahead of myself. That function will create a linked list of all your categories, not display the contents of the categories.

    Thanks, Kevin. I am new at WP and Gravity Forms. Could you give me a more detailed instruction of how to do this? Ideally I would like to have the stories submitted feeding to the "stories" page and have a widget box on the home page with the latest 3-4 stories....
    Thanks for your help.

    If you want to display the contents in a widgetized area, a pre-built widget might be the ticket for you. This one sounds like it would fit the bill and wouldn't require any custom coding in your theme.
