    Hi,
    I am trying to have my contact form (Contact Form 7) to display on the home page.
    It only display the shortcode.

    The form works on other page. Does anyone knows how to make it shows on home page?
    Thanks

    Hey,

    What’s the link to your site? I don’t use Contact Form 7 but it seems like it should show up fine.
    You could always check the source editor to make sure there’s nothing around the shortcode.

    Sorry my site is not up yet.

    I tried with https://wordpress.org/plugins/our-team-enhanced/ plugin too, it worked on Page or Post, but not home page, it only show the shortcode.

    So no shortcodes work at all?
    Also what theme are you using

    yeah no shortcodes working.

    I am using the Skt White

    I tried using this

    <?php echo do_shortcode( ‘[contact-form-7 id=”688″ title=”Standard Form”]’ ); ?>

    but doesnt show anything

    Well I did a test and it seems like the issue is that the free version of the theme doesn’t support shortcodes in the homepage sections.
    You’ll need to set your own hompage. If you don’t know how just create a page titled “Home” then go to Settings > Reading then select “A static page” and choose “Home” for your homepage.
    Just copy whatever code you have in the theme sections and paste it in your homepage.

    Hi Bryan,

    Yes in free version we are not allowed to have shortcodes working on the homepage. This is rule from theme reviewers. Not something we kept.
