Form-Shortcode not resolved

Hi there!

@hampti Can you share back-end screenshot where you are placing this shortcode? Just to make sure you are doing the right way.

Thanks!

Hi there,

i placed it in the “text” field (“what would you like to display”->text) using the button “add form”, as intended i guess.

Today i found out that it indeed will work, if i do not use the text field to display, but just the plain shortcode option. Thats sufficient for me, though i am wondering, shouldn’t it work using the text field, too?

But i encountered another phenomenon: WPForms provides three options: confirmation message, page load or url redirect after sending a form.
I was using the plugin “wp forms ajax submit” to have the “form sent” confirmation message inline inside a modal without a page reload. Originally, this did work (i used the plugin “popup maker” before).

Using wp contact slider, the form will not be sent, but hangs displaying the button “sending….”. Without the plugin, it works fine using a confirmation page. Using a confirmation message works, too, but as the page reloads and the modal is closed, the confirmation is not visible.

Is there a way to have the confirmation displayed in the slide without a page reload?

Sorry for alle the hassle in advance. ??
Best regards

Hi there!

To use shortcode for any form you would have to use shortcode option and place your shortcode in the provided field.

For the confirmation thing we would have to check the possibilities. Might take time as we are full at the moment. Will ping you if we’ll start on this one.

Thanks!

Hi there!

Hope fully things are working for you now since around its been 2 weeks since we hear from you.

Let us know if still there is any thing we can help you with.

Thanks!

Hi WPExperts,

thanks for asking, but there is no update available. Didn’t you announce one regarding the ajax thing? ??

As stated, it works with “shortcode” option. No problem.
But its confusing, as you would expect it to work with text option, too. If i am right thats default WP behavior, and there is an “add form”-button coming with the RTE that lets you choose a form and inserts the shortcode in the editor. Thats misleading as it will not work.

No changes with the ajax submit thing -> no inline confirmation possible, only the option to redirect to another page. Most people including me can live with that, but its not perfect.

So.. thanks, i am fine, but these are my suggestions for improvement. ??

Best regards
