 * I have created a new page with the following shortcode on the page:
    [msdyncrm_form
   entity=”lead” name=”New Form” mode=”create” message=”Thanks for contacting us!
   We’ll be in touch soon.” hide_form=”true” parameter_name=”id”]
 * And I am getting this error message:
    Unknown parameter mode(‘”create”’) specified
   in shortcode attributes
 * Please can you advise on how to rectify this issue?

 * Hi [@ciara12](https://wordpress.org/support/users/ciara12/)
 * looks like you’re using fancy quotes ” (probably as a result of copy and paste
   through Word or something like that). You need to use straight quotes ” when 
   specifying attributes in the shortcode.
 * Thanks

 * Thanks George,
    Removing the quotes did manage to take me a bit further but now
   it gives me this error: “Can not get form definition”. Please can you advise 
   what could be causing this issue?

 * It means the plugin cannot locate the form **New Form** in your Dynamics 365 
   installation. Do you have a form with this name in your instance?

 * Thanks I actually did figured that one out right after posting here.
    I have 
   a problem that my form is displayed in the page but enable_layout doesn’t do 
   anything even if the form in the CRM have two columns it doesn’t affect the page
   and when i try submit the form it gives an error saying Form Validation Failed.

 * We’ll look into `enable_layout` issue but as far as the validation is concerned,
   make sure you complete all mandatory fields for the form, and check that you 
   don’t have mandatory fields hidden.
    If there is still a problem, go to the plugin
   About tab, change logging level to Debug, try submitting the form, then download
   the log file from the About tab and email it to [support@alexacrm.com](https://wordpress.org/support/topic/unknown-parameter-mode/support@alexacrm.com?output_format=md).(
   don’t forget to switch log level back to whatever it was before, Debug continuously
   generates a lot of information)

    try multi-column layout
   using tabs not sections. That seems to work.
