Hi,
thanks for your post, and sorry for the trouble.
To insert a form, you’ll need to put in the HTML code for a form into a table cell. Not that it will not have any functionality then yet.
You might therefore better look for a contact form plugin, for example.

That was my first attempt. I actually dropped in a working code from <form> to </form>. Do I need more code around that to work then?
Hi,
yes, you will need a script somewhere that processes the submitted form data, i.e. either a script that for example emails the data to you or a script that saves the data to a database.
TablePress can’t to neither of that as such data management is not what it was designed for. Sorry.

That’s already build into the webform from my autoresponder. When I use it normally, I just drop it into the html source code where I want it, and it works from there.
Hi,
ok, so what’s not working then when you put it into a table cell?

Hi,
unfortunately, I can’t open that link, as it’s just a preview and no public page 🙁

That same code looks like the webform on this page.

Hi,
ah, now I see. The problem is the automatic conversion of line breaks that TablePress does. To change this behavior, please change the table’s Shortcode on the page to
[table id=2 convert_line_breaks=false /]

Thanks Much. I would have never figured that one out.
Hi,
no problem, you are very welcome! 🙂 Good to hear that this helped!

P.S.: In case you haven’t, please rate TablePress here in the plugin directory. Thanks!
