This week has seen Gravity Forms 2.6 become available to all our customers – a release that we know many of you have been looking forward to! And to make sure you get the most out of 2.6, over the next few weeks we’ll be sharing snapshots of some of the new 2.6 features, so you can hit the ground running when you update.

In this article, we’ll take a look at the new form embed process, and discuss how to use the new Embed Form flyout to add forms directly to a page or post from within the form editor, saving you much time by significantly improving your form creation workflow.

Let’s jump in…

New Intuitive Embed Form Flyout

The process of embedding a form within your WordPress website has been reimagined with the new intuitive Embed Form flyout.

The Embed Form flyout utilizes the WordPress Block Editor, enabling you to add a form to any page or post on your site, from directly within the form editor. Simply open the Embed Form flyout and select where you would like a form to be displayed.

Embed Form flyout options include…

• Embed a form into an existing page or post
• Create a new page or post, after which you can embed a form
• Embed a form into a custom post type (with the use of filters)

If you don’t use the Block Editor, you can also copy the shortcode of the form from within the Embed Form flyout, as well as view the form ID.
