Usage inside a form

Hi @allampatu, I’ll look into this for you asap.

Hi @allampatu , I’ve looked into this issue at last and realised this isn’t an issue with the plugin. It’s a common issue with Contact Form 7. A quick Google search revealed the answer: https://wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/45266/how-to-use-other-shortcodes-inside-contact-form-7-forms

All you need to do is add the following to your functions.php:

add_filter('wpcf7_form_elements', function($form) {
    return do_shortcode($form);
});

I just pasted that exactly. It does add the We Transfer widget but looks like this:

${label}

And when you mouse over the add button it looks like this:

Any idea how to fix this?

Oh plumbs.
I’ll take a look at some point today and get back to you.

Thanks @ozpital

Hi, is this resolved, as i still seem to be having this issue. (im trying to integrate into gravity forms, but facing the exact same problem)

Thanks in advance!

Sorry @stephenskelly , not resolved completely just yet.

WordPress removes some essential markup from the plugin when the shortcode it used within a form.

I do have this feature penned in and will introduce it asap but right now, to get this working – include the wetransfer shortcode outside of the gravity form/cf7.

Ah great,

Yes was looking at that method as a solution but hoped for something a little more elegant.

Thanks all the same will use that for now!

Hi ozpital,
when can you expect this issue with CF7 to be resolved?
Regards
