What is a form shortcode? ​

A shortcode is a text command inserted into a WordPress page that renders a form.

A WP Full Pay shortcode contains parameters that uniquely identify a form:

  • Name
  • Layout (inline or checkout)
  • Type (one-time, subscription, donation, or save card)

Here is a shortcode example:

[fullstripe_form name="paymentInlineDefault" type="inline_payment"]

How to insert a form into a page? ​

You can insert a form into a page by following these steps:

  1. Create a form

    One you create a form and saved it, the shortcode will be auto-generated.

  2. Copy form shortcode into the clipboard

  3. Insert form shortcode into a page (or an input field of another plugin)

1. Create a form ​

You have to save the form to be able to use its shortcode.

After you create and save a form, the shortcode will be auto-generated.

IMPORTANT!

If you change the form name then the shortcode changes as well!

2. Copy form shortcode to the clipboard ​

The shortcode appears as an inline field in the Shortcode column of the form list. Click the field to copy the shortcode to the clipboard:
