    Question1: What versions of Wordpress are compatible with Gravity forms?
    Question 2:
    Is it possible to embed, include, or in any way insert a Gravity form into a standard webpage (HTML, PHP, etc?)
    example:
    Wordpress installed into http://www.somedomain.com/wordpressFolder/ (with Gravity forms configured)
    Webpages created outside of Wordpress at http://www.somedomain.com/contact.html with Gravity form inserted in some manner.

    Gravity Forms works with WordPress 2.8+ and requires that you have PHP5 running on your server.

    The forms aren't a standalone application and need a WordPress installation to run them. You can always use an iframe to embed a form on another site, and some users have come up with other ways to embed the forms in external sites. There are a few topics on this forum that discuss how they've done it.

    Being able to embed the forms in external sites is something thats on the drawing board and will eventually make it into a release, but I'm not sure when that will be.

    If you're simply looking for a standalone forms processor and not something that's integrated with WordPress, something like MachForms may suit your needs. If you do want WordPress integration, you're not going to find a better solution than Gravity Forms.

    Thank you Kevin. Machforms looks promising. Much better than Form Maker Pro which I currently use. I like what your video show for retrieving logs of data, plus if it can be included into other page, it'll do very well. I'll investigate more and again thanks for your help.

    OK, using the iframe method, is there a file generated by the form builder that is the form only so that I wouldn't include the entire page with heading, sidebars, etc but only the form?

    Nope. The form has to be embedded in a WordPress page.

    See my other post here for more info.
