What is a WordPress Embed?
Note: The WordPress Embed is deprecated and will be removed in a future version.
A WordPress embed is a way to use a shortcode to display your form as part of your WordPress content, without your form users needing to click a link to Formsite.
Requirements
For a self-hosted WordPress site or a WordPress.com site, you first need to install and activate the Formsite plugin. If you're using WordPress.com, your site needs to be on their Business level or higher plan to be able to install plugins.
Shortcode Options
On your form's "Share" page, click the "WordPress" tab near the left of the page. Copy the shortcode and then paste it into your content where you want your form to appear.
You can use the shortcode in the Visual editor or the Text/HTML editor, as shown below:
Required Attributes
-
host: Special value that tells Formsite how to get your form. Don't change this. -
key: Special value that tells Formsite how to get your form. Don't change this. -
width: A size (in px) or a percentage to use for your form's width.
Troubleshooting
If the embedded form doesn't load, start by verifying the shortcode has been copy/pasted correctly. If you're using a self-hosted WordPress site, make sure the Formsite plugin is installed and shows as enabled.
It's possible for existing code or other WordPress plugins to interfere with the embedded form. Verify all code on your page is valid and there aren't any code errors.
