Hi-
Just bought the form builder, looks good so far.
Can't find this in the Help/Docs, but point me at it if it's in there; Question:
Trying to add the form to a WordPress widget, which means placing the text for teh form, without all the formatting. Is there an easy export to get that?
Right now (6-Aug morning), the form is in a widget on the sidebar, and it looks like this:

Thanks for a nudge in the right direction here...
Thanks,

Well I'm going to assume the 2nd form is the one you're trying to fit in the side bar? If that is not the case let us know.

You will never get that to fit in that side bar as it is as you have it at a huge size to start with. Here's what I would suggest.

Open the form again and alter it so that it's at like 25% or somewhere in that area (can't see the available percentages at the moment) so it's going to actually fit in that spot. Use the Transparent theme to remove the theme behind it. Readjust any padding on any elements that the Transparent theme might mess up (shouldn't be much).

Then save and export your form again (do under a different name so you don't lose your original large one). Once you do this go to the folder and find the .html file that is actually the entire form. Use that code instead of the code the program spits out and see if that does the trick. You'll still need all the files (probably not the php one it gives you, but use it anyways unless someone else tells us exactly which ones are needed). Update anything you want changed and that should do the trick.

Good luck on it :)

Thanks,
Yes, it was the second form. The first one is an "official" WordPress plugin called Formidable. It works.

I have taken down the CCup form, and will have to look closely at the steps you outlined.

This form builder seems fine for a static page, and possibly a WordPress page (not a widget/sidebar).

Thanks for the ideas, I'll work on this later today.

As another thought. I use Wordpress or a Blog to draw traffic to my sites and to do so I just add a link. Checking in Cpanel AWStats this gives the most traffic by far. More traffic, Better standing in Google, All good.
