Using form title instead of id when embedding in templates

    Hi there,

    When using a function call to embed a form the form ID needs to be used. This is often impractical for us since the form IDs on the dev and live sites are usually different. This means that while testing and working on forms on the dev site, they will no longer function on live, and visa versa.

    Is it at all possible to use the form title, or some sort of form related slug, to call a form within a template, rather than using the id? Otherwise, is there a workaround for this?

    Thanks,
    Iain

    Hm, the only option I can think of is to simply replicate your live site down to your dev (or vice versa) so that your form IDs are in sync. Not sure there is any other way to achieve this currently.

    +1 to this feature request. It's not always practical/possible to keep the form IDs in sync.
