Show Form in Sidebar only on certain page

    I have successfully inserted the form that I wanted into the sidebar using the sidebar form widget recently added into the new version of gravity forms. My question is am I able to have the form only show in the sidebar on certain pages?

    For instance, I would like the form to be on all pages in the sidebar except the blog page where I will be putting a search widget in the sidebar instead of where the form would go.

    Could you please let me know how I would go about doing this. Thanks in advance.

    You would use WordPress functionality to do that, not Gravity Forms.

    Sounds like you should make a new page template for the blog page and include a different widgetized sidebar for that, or else put some logic in your sidebar.php file to use a different widtetized area. You can find information on how to do this on the WordPress site or there are several other resources out there that will guide you.

    There are also plugins that let you control which widgets appear on a page by page basis such as this one:

    I appreciate the follow up from both of you. I actually ended up using the widget context plugin that allowed me to specify what sidebar I wanted in different spots. I am assuming that the total widget control is much the same thing but the widget context worked nicely.

    Here is the site for widget context if anyone is interested.

    Thanks again for the response.
