Sidebar not appearing on form pages

  1. Hi,
    I'm using the latest version of gravity forms and a plugin called display widgets to control which pages display sidebars. My sidebars display correctly on other pages (e.g., customers).

    I cannot get the sidebars to appear on the forms pages, Contact Us, Company Executives, Kosher Consumers, Rabbis. They are set as default page templates and I can't think of what else to check or correct.

    The site is being developed here: http://www.socialmediaboulder.com/dev1/contact-us/

    Please advise. Thanks, Nalini

  2. The sidebar is present, but it's pushed to the bottom. That is usually due to invalid HTML.

    It pays to validate your site's XHTML, here:

    Looks like this is probably the problem:

    <span class='gform_description'>Thank you for your interest in Kosher certification. We respond rapidly to all inquiries.<br>
    
    Contact Us: (888) 312-3559</br></span>

    The form's description contains some invalid HTML. There is no < /br > tag. If you want a line break, you can do < br /> or wrap the text in paragraph tags like this < p >Text< /p >.

    I have to add spaces to the tags here, but in the real world the need to look like this:

    [html]
    <br />
    <p>TEXT</p>

    Fix that form description and I think you will be OK.
